The best parts in my opinion would be the clubs and organizations in school. I was pretty involved in school and really enjoyed my high school experience. The teachers I had were very supportive. I did feel it lacked diversity and that certain administration staff favorited some students over others.

The school is known around as the "White preppy school", and although I agree I feel as if the school is great. Students unite in causes that matter, and it makes me happy seeing teachers and students getting along great. Even though the school lacks diversity and colored student involvement I believe this school is heading the right way.

My overall experience at Harbor high school has been positive. The best part has been the supportive teachers and the variety of extracurricular activities available. The worst part has been the crowded hallways during passing periods. I would like to see improvements in the cafeteria menu and more mental health resources for students. Overall, it has been a great place to learn and grow.
