Learn Without Limits at Harbor City International School
At Harbor City International School (HCIS), we believe education should do more than check boxes - it should spark curiosity, build confidence, and connect students to the world around them. As we open enrollment for Fall 2025, now’s the time to discover what makes our 7th - 12th grade tuition-free public charter school stand out. With limited seats available, we invite families to explore a school where students thrive through real-world learning, strong academics, and a bold global perspective - all right here in the heart of Downtown Duluth.
✅ Real Learning, Real Results
We’re proud to be ranked #1 in Duluth and #20 in Minnesota - but it’s not just about test scores. At HCIS, we create a space where students and teachers work side-by-side, pushing each other to think deeper, ask better questions, and grow in meaningful ways. Whether students need extra support or want to take on college-level work, we make sure everyone is seen, supported, and challenged.
✅ Learning Beyond the Desk
Let’s be honest: learning gets exciting when you step out of the classroom. That’s why we have Symposiums - three weeks a year where students dive into hands-on topics they’re passionate about. Think wilderness adventures, art workshops, service projects, and more. Plus, with our downtown Duluth location, field trips are as easy as a short walk to the YMCA, Lake Superior, or a local nonprofit. School should feel connected to real life - and at HCIS, it is.
✅ Local Action, Global Mindset
Our teachers and staff care deeply about our planet and our community, and our students do too. From environmental cleanups to outdoor education and guest speakers in green careers, we’re always connecting local action to global ideas. Through clubs like ACT Action Team and service-learning symposiums, students start to see themselves not just as learners, but as changemakers.
