🎉 We’re proud to share that Harborside Academy has successfully renewed our EL Education School Credential! 💙💛

This recognition reflects the dedication of our students, staff, and families to creating a school where every student is empowered to lead, grow, and make a positive impact.

Thank you to our incredible Crew for making this achievement possible!

Congratulations to Harborside Academy on the successful renewal of their EL Education School Credential!

At Harborside, the EL Education Core Practices are not simply implemented; they are lived. Guided by the mission to "unleash and cultivate the passion and genius in every human being," the school has built a culture where students lead their own learning, engage deeply in assessment and reflection, and work to build a better world.

Through a powerful combination of rigorous academic support, meaningful student leadership opportunities, and a strong culture of character, Harborside empowers students to become reflective, capable, and compassionate leaders. As one student shared, "My teachers have always been the absolute best. ... Every day, they inspire me to color outside the lines and be the very best that I can be."
