Over 500 school districts across the country utilize the Varsity Tutors for Schools platform to supplement classroom learning and to close learning gaps effectively.

They can also sign up for expert-led live classes and learn subjects like Geometry, Middle School Math, Elementary School Reading, and more alongside their peers.

Harbor Science and Arts Charter School families can access the Varsity Tutors for School platform by visiting the Harbor website: Harbor Science and Arts Charter School (hsacs.org). The platform is available immediately through June 2030.

As set forth in our mission statement, the school believes that all students must meet State Standards; however the school understands that many students enter behind grade level and have special needs. The school is committed to providing the resources necessary to bring students to grade level by incorporating a variety of elements into the program, such as the following:

  • For younger grades, at least two teachers in the classroom at all times.
  • Smaller class sizes in upper grades (6-8) to ensure student needs are truly met through a modified curriculum and instruction.
  • Emphasizing basic literacy and numeracy in lower grades (1-3) and devoting at least 60% of academic time to those subject areas.
