On Sunday, February 15, 2026, former Hoquiam High School Band Director Ms. Susan Peters was inducted into the Washington Music Educators Association Hall of Fame. 🎶✨ The induction ceremony took place at the association’s annual conference in Yakima, where Susan was one of just ten educators honored during a special luncheon and recognition ceremony. This is a tremendous accomplishment and a fitting tribute to a career defined by excellence, dedication, and impact. Susan was recognized for her many years of teaching and leadership in the classroom, as well as for her respected work as a clinician and adjudicator throughout the Pacific Northwest. Her influence reached far beyond Hoquiam, but her heart and legacy will always be rooted here. Generations of students remember the lessons they learned in her band room — lessons about hard work, pride, discipline, and teamwork that extended well beyond music. 👏🤩 #WeAreHoquiamSD
