The Train!

Our school is registered with the Metro North Railroad’s Mail & Ride program.  What does this mean?  Students who choose to commute daily by train are provided with a special monthly student commuter pass by Oakwood to ride the train at a significant discount. The discount for being a student rider is a 33% off of whatever the standard monthly commuter pass cost would be from your designated stop.  Oakwood provides a daily bus shuttle to pick-up and drop-off our students at the Poughkeepsie train station.  Students should ride the train that arrives in Poughkeepsie at 8:07am daily.

If you plan on getting your child to school by train, please contact our admissions office ([email protected]) to get signed up.
