Dear Port Jervis School District Retiree,
While every day may feel like a Saturday to you, our staff is starting to feel like it is Sunday night!
We would like to invite all retirees to our annual Opening Day breakfast. PLEASE SPREAD THE WORD to as many of your fellow retirees as possible so we do not miss anyone. All current staff and retirees are invited to the Port Jervis High School Cafeteria on Tuesday, September 2, 2025 at 7:30 am. It will be a wonderful opportunity to catch up with your former co-workers!
At 8:00 am, all current staff will report to the auditorium for a "State of the District" meeting. This meeting will last approximately one hour. At this time, all Retirees will have the option of attending this meeting with the current staff, remaining in the cafeteria with your friends or departing the building whenever you wish.
This past June, 11 employees retired after devoting a combined total of 246 years of service to Port Jervis City School District. Port has a proud past and a bright future! All of us are indelibly linked together through our shared commitment to this district and its students. We thank you for your years of service, and hope you can make it to our Opening Day breakfast at Port Jervis High School Cafeteria on September 2!
With Great Admiration,
Dr. John J. Bell
Superintendent of Schools
