Like a small, sturdy ship plying an ocean's large swells, the New York Harbor School is a vessel of considerable integrity, facing daunting challenges.

First, the school is miles from the water, an essential element to its curriculum and mission. Second, the students, many of whom arrive unprepared for high school, can be overwhelmed by the expectations of rigor, discipline, and commitment that characterize Harbor.
