[7] From circa 1928, the Montague Township School District of Montague Township, New Jersey sent its high school-aged students to Port Jervis High; the Montague district was the only New Jersey school district to send its students outside of New Jersey to complete certain grade levels.

[8] Because the Montague Township students graduated from Port Jervis High, they qualified for in-state tuition rates at universities in two states.

[12] Families of 20 Port Jervis HS students resident in Montague opposed a New Jersey commissioner order saying they could not continue attending that school and got a settlement on June 20, 2016, that allowed them to complete their high school education there.

[13] Port Jervis High School's football team is named the Raiders.

The game is named after the trophy, an old railroad bell originating from a train on the Port Jervis-Middletown line.
