  • Age 5 through 21, and
  • Enrolled in an elementary or secondary public, charter, private or parochial school located within the District, or youth in the care of the District.

School Year 2022 - 2023 

In School Year 2022-2023, DC students can request a new SmarTrip Card for traveling on public transit systems within the District. A supply of the new cards will be sent directly to all DC public and charter schools for distribution to eligible students. Students can collect their new School Year 2022-2023 KRF SmarTrip cards from their school ID administrators like they did during the last school year. School Year 2021-2022 Kids Ride Free SmarTrip cards will remain valid through September 30, 2022
