Dear Hoquiam School District Families,

We hope you’ve had a wonderful summer! We can’t wait to welcome our students and families back. We’re looking forward to a wonderful school year together.

An annual family information update must be completed for all students currently enrolled in the Hoquiam School District.

To update your student's information, log in to Skyward Family Access and click on “Annual Family Information Update” beginning Monday, August 24, 2026. Information must be updated by Wednesday, September 2, 2026.

You will be able to see your child’s class placement in Skyward under "Schedule" once the registration process is complete.

*Please note schedules at the middle school and high school are still subject to change.

The link to Skyward Family Access is located on the Hoquiam School District website at www.hoquiam.net.

Skyward will look different than before, as we have switched to the updated version of the program. This will not affect your ability to log in. Skyward access is also available via smart phone. If you had the previous Skyward app on your phone, please delete it and re-download it. You can search for Wsipc- Hoquiam School District.

If you need Skyward assistance or do not know your login information, please email info.hsd@hoquiam.net or call the District Office at (360) 538-8200. If you do not have access to a computer, you may access one at Timberland Regional Library or at your student’s school office by appointment.

Thank you,
Hoquiam School District
