ORCA Card Information

Metro Transit: Orca Card

All youth will be able to ride transit for free by doing one of the following:

Tapping your ORCA card when you board and exit
Showing your current high school or middle school student ID card
If you don’t have either, you can still ride for free

Public transit is free for riders 18 and younger thanks to Move Ahead Washington, a statewide transportation funding package.
Students enrolled in Special Ed services until they are 22 also can ride free such as students in RISE and the Evergreen Transition Program.

To ensure ORCA cards stay active for next school year, register your card through King County Metro: https://info.myorca.com/youth-ride-free/

When Will ORCA Cards Be Available?

ORCA cards will be available for students at each high school’s or choice school’s Taking Care of Business / Orientation Day, as well as during the school year.
