Summary

Hoquiam Homelink School is a small K–12 alternative school in Hoquiam, Washington, serving 107 students in the Grays Harbor area. It offers an alternative setting for students who may benefit from a different structure than a traditional school. About 64.49% of students qualified for free or reduced-price lunch in 2024–25, a level similar to nearby alternative schools.

The biggest concern is graduation: Hoquiam Homelink’s rate was 54.0% in 2024–25, compared with 78.8% for the Hoquiam School District and 82.6% statewide. School-level dropout data are not available for the most recent years, but earlier rates were high before improving to 21.7% in 2021–22. Academically, English Language Arts is a relative bright spot. Proficiency rose to 29.73% in 2025–26, nearly matching the district and exceeding Grays Harbor Academy’s 25.86%, though it remained below Wishkah Valley Elementary/High School’s 35.71%.

Science is the clearest academic weakness: 19.35% of students were proficient in 2025–26, compared with 34.78% at Grays Harbor Academy and 52.63% at Wishkah Valley. Historical math results were also very low, but the latest school-wide math result was suppressed by the state and should be treated as unknown, not zero. The reported student-teacher ratio was 26.7:1, higher than Wishkah Valley’s 10.3:1 but lower than Grays Harbor Academy’s 49.6:1. Overall, families should weigh the school’s smaller alternative-school environment and improving ELA results against low, volatile graduation outcomes, weak science performance, and the limitations of data from a small student population.
