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. Learn 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. Charge 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.

Summer Assignments due at beginning of 2026-27 school year

A hallmark of a Hoban education is instilling life-long learning in each student. In addition to English classes, some other courses have summer assignments. These assignments help to prepare students for the next grade level. Students should complete these assignments prior to the start of the 2026-27 school year. All rising juniors must complete the Financial Literacy course. Please note: Some classes may have assignments due during the summer months.

Pep Band

This spring, Hoban announced that it will launch a new pep band in fall 2026, reviving a spirited musical tradition not seen on campus in decades. Performing at select athletic and school events, the pep band will energize the student experience and further strengthen the Hoban community.

Open to all Hoban students, the pep band will be taught by Hoban alumnus John Zazo ’15, who, as a student, was a member of Hoban’s steel drum band and played the snare drum in Hoban’s drum line. While previous musical experience and basic instrument knowledge are preferred, beginners are welcome to participate.

“We have many passionate musicians in our student body, and I want to give them another space where they have more opportunities to perform throughout the school year,” Zazo said. “Pep band is a perfect medium for such a space since we will be performing during our home games to support our student-athletes.”

An informational meeting for interested students and families will be held on Tuesday, June 9, at 5:30 p.m. in Hoban’s Moreau Ministry Hall. Those interested in learning more about joining the pep band are encouraged to attend. Students who are unable to attend the meeting but would like additional information should complete the interest form.

Mr. Zazo will also host a welcome meeting on Thursday, July 23, from 3–4 p.m. in Moreau Ministry Hall. Regular pep band rehearsals will take place every Thursday at 3 p.m., with the first rehearsal scheduled for Thursday, July 30.

Questions may be emailed to pepband@hoban.org

The Impact of the Brothers
  • Alumni

When Patrick Dougherty ’57 transferred from an elite Jesuit boarding school in Wisconsin to Archbishop Hoban High School in the summer of 1954, he immediately felt a difference in the air from the Holy Cross Brothers who taught, served and ran the school.

“The Holy Cross spirituality gave you room to breathe, I guess you could say,” Dougherty recounts. “It wasn’t a stifling version of faith; they allowed you to grapple with all of those ideas coming into your mind but did so in a disciplined environment that allowed space to orient your values.”
