GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

I loved Harborside. I went there from 6th grade to 12th grade. They left me with the greatest memories of my life. I was so lucky to go there. From the academics to the character traits, I felt very prepared for college. Not even just college, but life. I really recommend Harborside to any student who wants to go to college one day. I think the only thing that I would change is to make the clubs more involved in the student population. I never really heard of clubs and I think that would make a big difference in the schools climate.

Harborside is a fine environment. Certain teachers really do care about you while others don't and just assign busy work. The class options are so limited and the elective options aren't very good.

My son graduated from Harborside Academy, he just missed being in the top 10% of his class but went on to a nationally accredited Business College and Graduated with honors, making the Dean's list every semester!

Harborside's approach is both great and has room for improvement. The expeditions the teachers put together are usually very engaging and help create final products that are pretty great, but there are also some concepts that need to be taught but get brushed aside since they don't fit the learning...
