GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

At Hoquiam High School, it's evident to others that we take extreme pride in being Grizzlies. Not only do our sports administration and school board make it a point to show their support for every single event, but you feel a sense of welcoming as soon as you enter our quaint little town. The academics are standard, the clubs are inclusive, and the teachers and staff make HHS comfortable place for everyone.

Small small school in a tight-knit community High graduation rates very low crime bullying anything like that great teachers who go the extra mile most students graduating on to the Grays Harbor community college and from there transfer to 4-year schools it's a place where your kids can go and you can feel safe. Great FBLA and sports programs.

I am currently a Freshman at HHS, and I love this school. We have incredible teachers. They do everything in their power to help us succeed. I was about to fail this semester, but with the teachers' guidance, encouragement, and support, I was able to pass. We may not have the technology that Aberdee...
