About the Harbor School Awards Dinner Since its inception in 2003, the Urban Assembly New York Harbor School (Harbor School) has been preparing students for careers in marine science and marine technology. Graduates have continued their studies at top universities including SUNY Maritime, Roger Williams and Columbia and have gone on to work as officers in the U.S. Merchant Marine, to serve in the U.S. Coast Guard, and to take their places as key members of New York’s maritime community.. None of this would be possible without the support of the maritime industry and our generous donors throughout the years. The Harbor community has gathered for the past decade to celebrate Harbor School programs and this year, we are thrilled to honor the leaders who have made a lasting impact on Harbor.
New York Harbor Foundation The New York Harbor Foundation’s mission is to create and support a network of environmentally literate schools, students and communities working together to restore New York Harbor. Its two supported programs are the Harbor School, New York City’s only public high school with a maritime focus, and the Billion Oyster Project. The Billion Oyster Project operates in close collaboration with Harbor School; and the development of this project has given us the opportunity to export our unique and effective learning model beyond the shores of Governors Island.
