Visit Hoban

KNIGHT FOR A DAY

Experience life as a hoban knight! You will Shadow a Hoban student for the day, going to their classes, meeting students and teachers, eating lunch and learning how Hoban is the place where you can be True to You. Spend a day – stay four years!

1. Shadows should be dropped off by 7:40 a.m. at the main dome entrance, where Admissions staff will be waiting there to greet you. Admissions staff will be available after school by appointment to give prospective parent tours. Tours must be scheduled in advance by calling the admissions office at 330.849.2149 or by email.
2. Please wear casual dress pants and a shirt with a collar. School uniforms are acceptable (no jeans, T-shirts or athletic attire). Masks are highly recommended for those students who have not yet received the COVID vaccine but are not required per CDC guidelines.
   Please bring a notebook and something to write with, as well as a book to read. This will be helpful to take visit notes and collect information as well as have something to occupy your time if your host needs to do quiet work in class.
3. Lunch will be provided for you and your shadow host. The cafeteria can accommodate food allergies and restrictions. You may bring lunch if you wish.
4. The day will conclude at 2:50 p.m. in the Office of Admissions. Please pick up students outside of door number 25 labeled the Office of Admissions. Please wait in your car for your student to greet you at the conclusion of their day. Shadows will be given a gift at check-out.

Hoban can accommodate up to 20 shadow visitors per day. You may request a guide of the same gender, or the admissions staff can choose one for you. Schedule a shadow day at least 10 days in advance by contacting the admissions office at 330.849.2149.

There is so much to show and tell you about Hoban, and we love sharing it all. Group tours are available every Tuesday. Individual tours are available by appointment anytime of the year. If there are specific areas of school or personnel that you would like to meet, we can arrange those appointments too. 

More than 60 percent of Hoban students receive some form of financial assistance. Hoban offers competitive, merit-based scholarships to reward and celebrate students' academic achievements. Additional financial assistance is available to support families and make a Holy Cross education accessible to all qualified students.
