Boston University GK-12 Program and The Harbor Middle School

Fellow: Adam Dobberfuhl

Teacher: Chris Huggins

The Harbor School’s mission is to inspire in our students an inextinguishable drive toward excellence, craftsmanship, service, and adventure. We view learning as an expedition and work to instill uncompromising academic skills, habits of work and character, and a personal sense of direction and tenacity that will lead to success in high school, and to a life-long love for learning and service to others.

Our focus:

Meet our Animals! - Animals in the classroom are a great way to engage the students, while also teaching them about basic animal needs and care.
