The district is ranked 611 out of 874 in New York and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger, but there is significant variation in the performance of individual schools.

Port Jervis Senior High School stands out as a relatively high-performing school, ranked 516 out of 1234 New York high schools with a 3-star rating. The school has a strong graduation rate of 84.3% and low dropout rate of 4.5%, as well as high proficiency rates on Regents exams. In contrast, the elementary and middle schools in the district generally perform below the state averages on ELA and math assessments, suggesting a need for targeted interventions to improve student achievement at these grade levels.

The district's schools serve a population with significant economic challenges, as indicated by the high rates of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 51.42% to 61.35%. However, the district is investing in its schools, with relatively high spending per student (between $29,210 and $31,429) and low student-teacher ratios (10.2 to 11.1). By addressing the identified areas for improvement and leveraging the district's strengths, the Port Jervis City School District can work towards enhancing the educational experiences and outcomes for all its students.
