Harbors

The Harbors Program supports middle and high school students who have therapeutic and/or behavioral needs that have affected their ability to engage and attend school, with the goal of re-engaging them in their education.

Overview of Harbors

The Harbors Program is located in districts and Shore locations, based on the needs of the students.

The Harbors program focuses on re-engaging students in their education following significant gaps. The highly individualized nature of the program, with flexible schedules and locations that meet the needs of the student, allows students to take ownership of their learning through what interests them.

In Harbors, schedules are created collaboratively with the student’s team, and are revisited frequently with the goal of increasing student engagement over time. In addition, the team works together to create and implement an educational path that aligns with both district requirements and student interest.

Harbors uses an experience-based learning model that provides rigorous, authentic educational experiences, helping students develop academic, personal, and college- and career-readiness skills. Through community-based coaching, therapeutic support, and individualized instruction, students gain the knowledge, confidence, and practical experiences needed for future success while taking ownership of their learning. 

Harbors is a Shore Educational Collaborative program housed in-district, which allows students to have easier access to their community. Harbors is staffed with a teacher, instructional aid, school adjustment counselor and community coach.
