Press release from Seaford School District:

June 14, 2021

There were laughs, lots of exercise and some important life lessons at Seaford Harbor Elementary School’s marquis spring event, Harbor Day. The annual tradition continued on May 26 despite restrictions from the COVID-19 pandemic.

Harbor Day featured a pair of virtual assemblies. In the morning, children enjoyed the Laugh Factory Comedy Magic Show. In the afternoon, classes logged on for a character education program hosted by Boosterthon. Intertwined in a dance party were lessons about care, courage, grit and teamwork.

Outside, each grade level had time for physical activity, including basketball and soccer games. The PTA provided crafts for children to do throughout the day. Students also wore their “Home is Where the Harbor Is” T-shirts, with each grade receiving a different color to form a rainbow.

“Harbor Day is a huge tradition,” Principal Thomas Burke said. “It’s a day for the children to celebrate themselves and the pride they have for their school.”
