Harbor Corps is a student leadership and service group open to all Urban Assembly New York Harbor School students led by the Billion Oyster Project. During the school year the group meets once a week on Wednesdays, to exchange information about their particular Career and Technical Education program, plan collaborative events focused on harbor issues, support development programs at Harbor School, and perform volunteer work for the Billion Oyster Project. In many ways, the club functions as a sort of parallel student government, with its members taking a leading role in organizing in-school and extracurricular activities and often representing the school and BOP at off-island public meetings and events.

The Fishing Club offers students an opportunity to learn to fish or to further their fishing skills. We learn and enhance our fishing skills while making a connection with the beautiful waters of New York Harbor. We catch striped bass, dog fish, porgies, black fish, sea bass and many other species of fish. Our catch and release program meets on Wednesdays after school in the Fall and Spring.
