Dear Port Jervis Learning Community,
Each year an emergency early dismissal drill is staged in our region as part of a program for each school district to review and update their emergency management procedures.
This required, county-wide drill will take place on Wednesday, September 15, 2021. This drill includes all public and non-public schools, as well as all BOCES programs in our region.
On Wednesday, September 15, 2021, all students will be dismissed fifteen (15) minutes earlier than they would on a normal school day, and as such should arrive at their afternoon destinations fifteen (15) minutes earlier than normal. We ask that you keep this in mind, especially if you pick up your child in person at the school, or are required to meet them at the bus stop.
Thank you for your cooperation.
Sincerely,
Mike Rydell
Superintendent of Schools
