Transportation
More than half of the students attending JCHS live outside of San Francisco. We are committed to making our students' commutes to JCHS easy and efficient.
CARPOOL
We assist in the coordination of carpools by region. Secure parking in our parking garage is available to student drivers in the 11th and 12th grades at no cost. Students must apply for a parking spot with the JCHS Security Staff.
PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION
We are centrally located near a number of MUNI lines including 2, 3, 4, 22, 31, 33 and 38. Discounted BART passes may be purchased at JCHS, and discounted MUNI passes may be purchased online. Our students often form commute groups, which provides them with a way to develop supportive relationships with one another across grades.
