The school district said that all K-12 students will receive Student Success Cards this year. Students will need the cards for the following:

- Be used for more services soon (like library checkout!)
Students riding the bus must carry their SUCCESS CARD, the school district said.
Grades 7-12 will be required to use their cards throughout the school day.
