The school only cares about money. Racist and my son treated like dirt.

I researched thoroughly before purchasing a home. A top rated elementary school was more important than house size or other factors. I am very pleased with my decision. I love Harbor View!

My children attended a local "prestigious" private school for a couple of years before enrolling at HVES, and I can honestly say that HVES is as challenging (if not more challenging) than what we experienced at the private school. The quality of education is outstanding at HVES! The administration, teachers, support, and community are top notch. I just wish we had made the move sooner!

Bullying is part of the character education program that is well taught.

I have no personal experience, but I do have contact with families who are very pleased with this support.

It is the most communicative and approachable administration I have ever encountered.
Posted: January 26, 2017
I love the way that the school encourages learning about building strong character and how the school reinforces these lessons.

My children have had wonderful success with each of their teachers.

Realistic homework expectations. Also, the quality of homework assignments aligns well with what is being taught.

LOVE Harbor View. The principal, Lara Latto is an excellent leader and very approachable and sets the tone for a wonderful school environment. It's a very positive place to be. I have one child who excels in school and has been challenged all along and one child who struggles in school and the services provided to both children have been appropriate and helpful. Parent involvement is high at this school and has a great community feel. The building is new and very nice.

I have a 3rd grader who previously attended a small private school. It has been an adjustment both academically and structure wise. I could not have made a better choice. The school teacher, guidance counselor, nurse, and principal have all shown a great deal of support and together, my son has already come a long way. My only regret is that I wish I would have started him there sooner. I am very grateful to have him at Harbor View Elementary!

I am very pleased with Harborview Elementary. In Kindergarten, my son was reading at the 2nd grade level. They are strong on academics and foster and excellent environment for learning.
