Transportation

How do students arrive to and from school?

Oakwood families have a variety of options for arriving to and from school, ranging from car, shuttle, bike, or public transit. 

Carpool

Many families utilize carpools that are arranged informally with the assistance of the family directory. To see a list of families who live near you, log in to the Oakwood Website Portal and click on “School Directory” in the “Veracross Quick Links” section. The “Households” tab has a “Nearby Student Households” link where you can locate households with Oakwood students within a 10-mile radius of your home. 

Public Transit

In addition, some students utilize public transportation on the VTA Bus #68 that runs from Gilroy to the San Jose Diridon Transit Center, offering a bus stop directly outside of Oakwood on Monterey Road at John Wilson Way. 

Shuttle Service

Oakwood also offers a morning and afternoon shuttle service to and from the South San Jose and Los Gatos/Campbell areas through partnerships with local, private companies. Please direct any questions to transportation@oakwoodway.org. 

Bicycles

Oakwood School does not permit bikes to be ridden on campus and should be kept at the bike racks in designated areas. Once on campus, bikes should be walked over to the racks. Additional information including a map of bike rack locations can be found on the arrival and dismissal page of the Family Portal.
