Hoboken High School (HHS) is a four-year comprehensive public high school serving students in ninth through twelfth grades, located in Hoboken, in Hudson County, in the U.S. state of New Jersey, operating as the lone secondary school of the Hoboken Public Schools. The school has been accredited by the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Elementary and Secondary Schools since 1928.[5]
Starting in the 2013–14 school year, the school had operated as a combined junior-senior high school.[6] In 2016–17, the middle school was split off to serve grades seven and eight, with plans to move the middle school to the A.J. Demarest building.[7]
As of the 2022–23 school year, the school had an enrollment of 526 students and 44.2 classroom teachers (on an FTE basis), for a student–teacher ratio of 11.9:1. There were 291 students (55.3% of enrollment) eligible for free lunch and 33 (6.3% of students) eligible for reduced-cost lunch.[3]

Hoboken High School is replacing the old Demarest High School on Garden Street (which Frank Sinatra attended).... Inspired by John F. Kennedy’s inaugural call to service (hence the name of the school’s athletic stadium), Hoboken High School was erected in order to give the students a location that was modern and new. Demarest uniforms were still used for the HHS baseball team that year, so as not to waste them. To accommodate for a baby boom, Hoboken High School was equipped for 1,500 students, and that was only for three grades – 10th, 11th, and 12th."

"Currently, the middle school is adjoining the high school and both are overseen by Hoboken High School Principal Robin Piccapietra. But the district has announced plans to separate the middle school from the high school next fall.... The middle school will occupy the top two floors of the AJ Demarest building located next to Church Square Park on Fourth and Garden streets."
