Portland Students Eligible for METRO Discount
Portland METRO and the Portland Public Schools will provide discounted bus passes to Portland middle school and high school students from September, 2007 through the end of the school year in June, 2008.
All of the district’s secondary students are eligible for a 50% discounted fare on METRO, or a fare of 50 cents. Students must present a METRO Student Fare card or a 2007/2008 school-issued student identification card to take advantage of the discount.
METRO Student Fare cards will be available at middle and high schools beginning the first day of school. They are not transferable from one student to another. Student ID cards will be available later this fall, after school pictures are taken.
Elementary school students or parents may request a Student Fare card by calling Denise Beck at the METRO at dbeck@gpmetrobus.com.
