“Go Crusaders!” The roar from the bleachers seems to shake the very foundation of Brother Rice High School. But don’t let the modern-day energy fool you. Brother Rice High School holds within its walls almost 70 years of history. Founded in 1956 by the Congregation of Christian Brothers, this all-boys school has been a pillar of academic excellence and faith in the Chicago community. Named after Edmund Ignatius Rice, the founder of the Christian Brothers, Brother Rice High School has a rich tradition of preparing young men for college and beyond. Look around. The school’s maroon and orange colors are no accident. Maroon pays homage to Iona College in New York, also founded by the Christian Brothers, while orange is a nod to another Chicago institution, Leo Catholic High School. But Brother Rice High School isn’t just about academics. This school has produced some serious talent, and not just on the field. Ever heard of actor John C. Reilly? Yup, he walked these halls, a Brother Rice Crusader through and through. And speaking of Crusaders, the school’s athletic program is a force to be reckoned with. With state championships in baseball, football, and even water polo, the fighting spirit of Brother Rice is undeniable. As you walk away from Brother Rice High School, take a moment to appreciate the legacy that resonates from its walls. This is more than just a school. It’s a testament to the power of faith, education, and a whole lot of Crusader spirit.
