Welcome to Humboldt Bay High School.

Humboldt Bay High School (HBHS) is an opportunity school with an emphasis on credit recovery. When a student gets back on track they can transfer to our partnership school, Eureka High School, and graduate. Students can also choose to finish at HBHS and participate in one the most intimate graduations on the North Coast. Students receive instruction in a standards-based curriculum from experienced teachers, who are supported by a caring office staff. While emphasis and focus is on academic achievement, those with special talents or interests have access to the impressive group of elective choices at Eureka High School.

With a combination of small class size and sheltered atmosphere, students often begin to feel a sense of family while attending HBHS. Our teachers are constantly visited by former students who continue to show a strong and continued attachment to their time spent at Humboldt Bay.

Challenges in the coming year include reevaluating our program to ensure we are meeting the needs of our ever changing school population and providing a learning experience that will prepare our students for life after high school.
