I agree with one other rating on this school. Very early on each student is defined as to which GROUP you will be in. And most of the staff all the way down from the top don't help. They actually encourage POPULARITY in the school. If you have a name and know someone, your IN! As for a learning experience, I'm really disappointed with their academics. If a student falls behind the only way to help them catch up is a suggestion of a 7th period, for the following year. There is no tolerance in this school for students that just do not fit in. And counselors seem not to care. I would give this school a ZERO star rating if that was possible. I have had three students attend and none of them LIKE this school and have transfered . Even the parents play the popularity game on this one. They are not open to any new ideas. As far as sports goes, I think that all kids should have a chance, regardless of their academic abilities. But not Hoquiam. As a parent and graduate of this school I'm ashamed and VERY DISAPPOINTED in this school!!!

This is a small school with a large heart in a caring community. The teachers care about the success of their students and the community supports the school activities. Proud to be a Grizzly!

Hoquiam has several multi-talented teachers, young and old, that come from various backgrounds. My daughter has had a lot of success with the various classes she's taken with the business instructors and active involvement in drama, volleyball, and track.

Hoquiam High School Is a nice school. I like it because it's not to big, and most of the kids are pretty nice. They have an awesome arts program that opens up a lot of opportunities for kids to experience new things.

Absolutely, because kids are an integral part of their own success. If they are forced into uncomfortable situations they shut down. If they explore their interestes..they blossom. Love not conformity.
