The card is free and offers great discounts on school activities and school merchandise including:

  • Free admission to most school-sponsored activities including concerts and athletic events at the home school. Discounted tickets are available for plays and musicals, which are not free because schools must pay for performance licenses.
  • Discounts on select Community Education classes.
  • 10 percent discount on merchandise sold at school stores. (Limit four items per year.)

Last year's cards are good through this school year.
