NYC Media, the official television network of the City of New York, has been nominated for an Emmy in the Education category for its documentary: Classroom on the Water – The Urban Assembly New York Harbor School!

The film, produced and directed by Dean Irwin and featuring Mayor Bloomberg and Harbor School staff, students and supporters, highlights our historic move from Bushwick, Brooklyn to Governors Island. The documentary also offers an unusual look at what can be accomplished at a New York City public school whose maritime mission inspires every aspect of student education, gives it meaning, and lays a foundation for the future.

We are extremely proud and excited by this nomination. We would like to thank the NYC Media office, the filmmakers, our students, staff and supporters, and the ADEONA FOUNDATION, whose grant made the film possible.

The New York Emmy Awards, which recognize outstanding content in the industry, will be presented on Sunday, April 1 at the Times Square Marriott Marquis. To purchase tickets to the Emmy Awards, click here. We would love to see you there!
