Kids Ride Free

The Kids Ride Free (KRF) program allows students to ride for free on Metrobus, Metrorail, and the DC Circulator while traveling within the District.

Fill out this form to receive a KRF card for 2024-2025

To be eligible for participation in the KRF program, each student must be:

  • A resident of the District of Columbia, and

  • 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.

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 KRF SmarTrip cards from their school ID administrators as they did during the last school year.

Remember: No Card, No Free Ride

Note: Students riding Metrobus, Metrorail, or DC Circulator should always have their Kids Ride Free SmarTrip card with them or be prepared to pay the regular fare for their trip.
