Dear Port Jervis Learning Community, 

It is with tremendous sadness that I inform our learning community of the tragic loss of one of our students. It has been reported that one of our sixth grade students lost their life while swimming with friends in the Delaware River on Saturday, May 30, 2020.  

Teachers, counselors, and administrators will be contacting parents and students.  Additionally, our school district counselors, social workers, and administrators are available to assist any member of the learning community during this exceptionally difficult time.  Please call 845-858-3100 Ext. 15511 or Ext. 13501 or email support@pjschools.org if you or your child would benefit from speaking with one of our counselors.  

Our thoughts and prayers are with the family, friends, and loved ones. 

Mike Rydell
