Parent Drop-Off/Pick-Up

Students may arrive to campus as early as 6:30 a.m., and picked up as late as needed. This gives parents and guardians who work the ability the comfort of knowing their son is in a structured environment throughout the school day. A hot breakfast is available for purchase in the main dining hall, while vending machines offer a healthy snack in the afternoon. Students typically use this time to study and catch up on school work. Saint Joe's provides adult supervision both before and after school.

NJ Transit Train

For families looking for other options, I would like to remind you that the NJ Transit Northeast Corridor line is extremely practical. The train line runs into Metuchen, less than a mile from campus and offers students a discounted rate as well. This option allows students to remain on campus for as long as they need, participating in tutoring, clubs, sports, and other activities until 8 pm each day. Many current students already use this option, traveling from various stops along the Northeast Corridor line including Newark and Princeton Junction and all stops in between.

Carpooling

To further assist parents in finding transportation solutions, we are developing a parent directory that will facilitate carpooling opportunities. This directory will serve as a platform for parents to coordinate and share rides with those who are local to you. We appreciate all the Saint Joe's families who are helping other students transport to Saint Joseph High School.

Please keep an eye on your inbox, especially your Saint Joe's parent emails for further updates regarding private bus routes and other transportation arrangements. If you need assistance with your Saint Joe's parent email, please contact Mrs. Kwiecien at jkwiecien@stjoes.org. We are committed to ensuring that all our students will get to experience what makes Saint Joe’s such a special place.
