Hoquiam High School, located within the Hoquiam School District in Hoquiam, Washington, is a comprehensive high school which first opened in 1891. Hoquiam serves as the third largest high school in Grays Harbor County, Washington; covering the city of Hoquiam and unincorporated parts of northern Grays Harbor County. The school is accredited by the Washington State Superintendent of Public Instruction.
Some notable facts:
- Current enrollment is slightly under 600 students.
- The principal is Ms. Jaime A. Huinzinga (interim) and Vice Principal is Mr. Brock Maxfield
- The mascot is a Grizzly Bear.
- The current campus, considered one of the most state of the art high schools in Washington State when opened, was constructed in 1968 and has undergone no major renovations since.
- The current campus was actually built for roughly 1,200 students, less than 600 are now enrolled in part due to the struggling economic declines of Grays Harbor County (as a result of the dwindling logging trade in the mid to late 1980s).
- Several classrooms unfortunately sit empty, are used for other purposes, or enlarged if equipped with a flexible wall.
- The track was reinstalled and rededicated in 2005.
