Hudson's Bay High School is a public high school in the Central Park area of Vancouver, Washington, and is part of Vancouver Public Schools. It was founded in 1955 and was named after the Hudson's Bay Company. Hudson's Bay is known for having two strong magnet programs, as well as a children's day care and district-wide mothers' transportation program. It is located across from Clark College, where many Bay students participate in the Running Start program.
Hudson's Bay offers two magnet programs—Careers in Education, and Habitat and Civil Engineering.
The Careers in Education magnet program prepares students for future careers in the fields of child development, family psychology, teaching, and instructional theory. Students take courses focused on these topics, and apply their learning through direct interaction with infants and children.
The Habitat and Civil Engineering magnet is a four-year program that offers in-depth education to those students planning careers in urban horticulture, landscaping, ecology, city planning, civil engineering, and architecture. Students apply their learning working in Hudson Bay's horticulture center, nursery, and science park, and through internships and work experience.
Hudson's Bay is a member of the Washington Interscholastic Athletics Association (WIAA) and participates in the Greater St. Helens 3A league.
The Mr. Hudson's Bay pageant is a mock Miss America Pageant designed to raise money for Doernbecher Children's Hospital. Every year, 12 senior boys are nominated and voted on by the senior class and teachers to compete in the pageant. The group works together to coordinate dance, talent, swimwear, casual wear, and formal wear portions of the competition. Contestants spend four months raising money individually and as groups. The contestant that brings in the most money receives the title of Mr. Hudson's Bay.
