A student ID card is an identification card issued by educational institutions to their students. It typically includes the student's name, photo, and identification number. These cards serve various purposes, such as verifying a student's identity, accessing campus facilities, and participating in school events. In addition to identification, student ID cards often provide benefits like discounts at local businesses, access to libraries, and entry to sporting events. They are essential for maintaining security on campus and ensuring that only authorized individuals can access certain areas and services.
