Student Life
HoLa Core Values
HoLa’s core values define who we are as a school community and reflect our commitment to academic excellence, bilingualism, and the cultivation of character strengths. We strive for a school climate that is joyful, academically rigorous, and safe for all.
Athletics
We value active bodies as much as active minds. Students learn foundational athletic skills during PE classes and have free play during daily recess.
HoLa students participate in Hoboken’s recreation program and on HoLa school teams in the statewide Charter School Athletic League. We regularly enhance our sports offerings.
Basketball

Soccer

Volleyball

Track/Cross Country

Aftercare
The learning and fun extend beyond the school day with our Aftercare program. Participating students have snack, homework time and free play daily. Students may also enroll in Enrichment offerings.
Enrichment + Clubs
Enrichment options include over a dozen after-school activities on a trimester basis, such as Lego Engineering, Chess, Sailing, Fishing, Math Circles, and more.
Club and Team offerings include recreational and charter league sports, Musical Theater, Science Olympiad, CyberPatriot, Taller de Arte, and Social Justice League.
Aventuras Veraniegas
HoLa’s Aventuras Veraniegas, a summer camp open to the general public, takes children “around the world” to experience a variety of Latin American cultures.
HoLa’s Spanish immersion summer camp runs for five weeks every summer - and is a great way for students entering grades K-4 to have fun while developing Spanish language skills. Students will “explore” a different Spanish-speaking country each week – in addition to arts programming, local field trips and more!
