Hello, Hawks:

May is a big month! Postseason sports. Testing. Parades (Hazel Dell, tomorrow; Fun Days, end of the month). Graduation preparation. Hawks are soaring!

We've got a few make-ups next week, but Advanced Placement exams have pretty much wrapped up. Our students have made incredible progress since the spring of 2022, when there were fifty-five (55) exams taken with a 51% pass rate. Last year, we had 132 exams taken with a 65% pass rate. Both numbers are higher than they've ever been at HHS. This year, 169 exams have been taken! We won't know scores until July, but this is tremendous growth.

Speaking of growth - our state ELA scores have a pass rate of roughly 82%. Last year's pass rate was 76%. The highest in our school's history is 83% back in 2018-2019. The state pass rate is at 60%. Keep up the strong effort, Hawks.

Up next, we've got:

- State SBA Math (10th Grade) - May 19-22

- State Science (11th Grade) - May 20-21

On Saturday - band and cheer march in the Hazel Dell Parade; Varsity Baseball is in the postseason in Ridgefield at 11am.

On Monday, May 19, we've got our first ever Rising Senior Night. This is for current 11th graders and their families. Come in and visit with us as we go over graduation requirements and how to prepare for senior year!

From May 30-31, the tradition of Hockinson Fun Days continues! Hockinson AAA Boosters puts on an amazing show, but they cannot do it without our community support. If you are able, please sign up to volunteer here.

As the school year winds down, the Hockinson Hawks are closing out an exciting spring sports season filled with hard-fought games, emotional finishes, and promising postseason opportunities.

Baseball Charges into District Tournament

The Hockinson Baseball team is still swinging for glory as they head into the District Tournament this Saturday at 11:00 AM in Ridgefield, WA. With a "winner-to-state, loser-out" matchup on the line, the Hawks are looking to bring their A-game and punch their ticket to the State Tournament. Come out and support the team in this crucial showdown!

Softball Bids Farewell to Season

The Hockinson Softball team wrapped up their season this week marking the end of a season full of growth, resilience, and team spirit. The players and coaches are proud of their hard work and are already looking forward to next year’s opportunities.

Boys Soccer Narrowly Misses State in District Heartbreaker

After an impressive run, the Boys Soccer team saw their season come to a close on Thursday night in a dramatic district tournament match against RA Long. Despite a valiant effort, the Hawks fell just short with a 2-1 final score. The team leaves the field with heads held high after a memorable season of competitive play.

Track Athletes Advance Toward State Glory

The Hockinson Track and Field team competed in Sub-Districts on Thursday and several standout athletes have qualified for the District Tournament next Thursday at Columbia River High School. With strong performances and growing momentum, the Hawks are looking forward to making a mark in the next round of competition.

Ethan Wall Heads to State Golf

A special shoutout goes to Ethan Wall, who will represent Hockinson at the State Golf Tournament on May 19–20 in Tumwater, WA. His dedication and skill on the course have earned him this prestigious opportunity, and we wish him the best as he takes on the state’s best golfers.

Congratulations to Ruby Cochenour for winning Athlete of the Week! Ruby is a sophomore in our Girls Golf program. Great job, Ruby! Keep up the strong effort.
