October is National Bullying Prevention month. Bullying is unacceptable and comments or conduct that disparages or demonstrates hostility or aversion should not be tolerated. By being accepting, kind and inclusive, you can help make the world a better place. Together we can create a world without bullying!

Members of Harbor High School's Leadership Club have been working hard to transform an empty office space at Harbor into a clothes closet for the Harbor and Adult Education students to access. When the word got out about the closet, clothes came flooding in. There is still a lot of work to do, but when it is complete, the closet will have our students covered.

Harbor's Advanced 21st Century Skills class students took advantage of the nice weather this week to get outside and start filming their short film projects. Groups worked together to plan and storyboard original ideas. These advanced students enjoyed testing out our newer HD camera and drone to record the scripts they wrote.
Allie Lamay, pictured, is a member of the leadership group that organized the creation, election, and delivery of the 2021-2022 Harbor High School hoodies and the selector of the motivational quote, "Just keep swimming" that is printed on each hoodie. Each year, students submit artwork and quotes for the hoodie design and the student body votes for its favorite design. This year there were two designs that went to press along with the quote: the symbolic lighthouse design created by Chloe Phillips, and the Mr. Dowker fish, created by Adam Lincoln.
