Raiders
bring home the Erie Bell
Congratulations to the Raider Football team for
winning the 131st Erie Bell game on Sept. 11. The 28-7 victory
earned Port Jervis the right to bring the coveted Erie Bell back
to Port Jervis High School.
The bell is the symbol and trophy of this rivalry, which is one
of the
longest in the nation in terms of games played. It came from the
old Erie Railroad that connected the communities. This was the
131st meeting between the schools, with the first coming in 1897.
(Many years, the schools played two games per season.)

Athlete's Guide to MRSA Infections |
MRSA is a type
of Staphylococcus aureus bacteria normally carried on the skin
and in the nose of healthy people. Some staph bacteria are
resistant to the class of antibiotics usually used to treat
staph infections, such as methicillin, and are referred to as
Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus. If a diagnosis of
MRSA is made, the infection is treated with a different
antibiotic.
This infection commonly causes boils and soft tissue infection.
The symptoms may include redness, areas warm to the touch, pain,
drainage, discomfort, and swelling. If your child is
displaying any of these symptoms or if you have concerns about
your child’s health, please contact your family physician. It is
very important to report a diagnosed or suspected infectious
condition to the school nurse, as well as the athletic trainer
(if an athlete).
