Summary:

The 12771 zip code area is home to 3 schools that serve students from elementary through high school, all part of the Port Jervis City School District. While the high school, Port Jervis Senior High School, stands out with strong academic performance and high graduation rates, the elementary and middle schools face challenges in meeting state proficiency standards. Addressing these disparities and leveraging the strengths identified could be key focus areas for the district to improve educational outcomes for all students.

East Main Elementary School consistently underperforms in ELA and math compared to district and state averages, indicating a need for improvement at the elementary level. In contrast, Port Jervis Senior High School excels, with a 3-star rating, high graduation rates, and strong performance on Regents exams, particularly in subjects like U.S. History and Government, Global History and Geography, and Common Core English Language Arts.

Port Jervis Middle School shows potential, with impressive proficiency rates on the Regents Living Environment and Algebra I exams, as well as relatively high 8th grade science proficiency. However, the district-wide high percentages of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch suggest that addressing issues of equity and providing additional support for economically disadvantaged students could be an important focus area for the district.
