My daughter truly thrived at Harbor. When she transitioned to high school, she was exceptionally well-prepared, both academically and socially. The faculty at Harbor is outstanding; they genuinely care about each student and take the time to nurture individual strengths. At Harbor, every child is seen, valued, and supported for who they are.

I have been a member of the teaching faculty at Harbor Country Day School for 22 years. In that time, the school has maintained its warm, welcoming feel that keeps students wanting to come back each day. I am grateful to have had the experience of working so closely with students and their families over the years. My own children attended Harbor and look fondly back on their years now that they are grown.

Class of '21 here. Really excellent elementary school, with massive community involvement. All families are involved, which leads to a very close group of students. Renovation supposed to be being done, so supposed to get even nicer facilities. Small class sizes though (my graduating class had about 15-20 kids), which was a plus for me, but might not be for others. Really grateful for Harbor, excellent school.

We are a new family to Harbor Country Day School this year. Our child is in 3rd grade and we decided to transfer to Harbor this year from a different private school on Long Island.

The absolute best school on Long Island. My family moved to the north shore of Long Island months before the pandemic and we were fortunate enough to enroll our two children (then joining PK4 and 2nd) at Harbor. Great decision! The teachers and staff were kind, welcoming, patient, and just extraordi...
