Educating Hearts and Minds
in the Holy Cross Tradition
“Knowledge itself does not bring about positive values, but positive values do influence knowledge and put it to good use.”
-Blessed Basil Moreau, CSC, 1856

Distinctly Hoban
1. Learning in the real World
Hoban students come from 100+ grade schools across 11 counties. Our diversity enriches the student experience. Students learn to have productive, respectful dialogue. They learn to not only accept others’ differences but to celebrate them. They are challenged to grow here, in a safe space, and are equipped to thrive anywhere.
2. Charging Forward
High school is a time to explore new interests, meet new friends and grow as a life-long learner. By the time you graduate, you will be amazed at the transformation and ready for the next challenge.
3. Anchored in tradition
Hoban’s long-standing traditions, such as Mum Day and our Holy Cross heritage, bind our community together. While we honor the legacy of the past, every student forges their path, leaving their unique mark.
4. Disciples with hope to bring
The early Brothers of Holy Cross were instructed to be disciples with hope to bring—catalysts for genuine change. Students educated in the Holy Cross tradition seek a transformative understanding of the world and their place within it, and they are fueled by a burning desire to bring hope to others.

Dr. Diane Vrobel created a new course that provides a real-world view and application of science. The Forensics course introduces students to toxicology, ballistics, blood and blood spatter, forensic entomology, fingerprints, hair analysis and crime scene investigations. Forensics will be offered first and second semesters during the 2025-26 school year. Students are required to take chemistry or physics as a prerequisite for the forensics course.

To be listed on the honor roll each quarter, a student must have a 3.333 grade-point average, with no grade lower than C-minus. Students may not be included on the honor roll until any incomplete grade(s) has been completed.
There are three honor roll classifications:
- Highest Honors: 4.00+
- High Honors: 3.80 to 3.99
- Honors: 3.333 to 3.79
The honor roll is published at the end of each grading period. Students receiving highest honors for the first three quarters will be invited to the Summa Cum Laude Honors Celebration in May.
To align with Hoban's policy of not ranking students, honor rolls are listed alphabetically. See the lists.
