I can't speak on the education here but the school is beautiful. My son had a lacrosse game here and I was amazed. Field was nice, bathrooms were clean. Turf was nice. No complaints here and we beat them. Thank you Bishop Gorman. read more

Three years in and could not ask for a better high school experience for our kids. Incredible teachers, supportive counselors, beautiful campus and respectful student body. Curriculum is tough, but not unreasonable and most importantly, they teach kids about accountability, which sets them up for success for the rest of their lives. read more

My first visit to Bishop Gorman High School was to attend The Pirates of Penzance @The Performing arts center. Tickets were available for purchase either online or at the door. Checkin was fast & easy with a small concession when you enter. The auditorium is clean and fairly small so there's not a bad seat in the house. The show was very enjoyable with several laugh out loud moments! I'm so happy I noticed the poster for this show while shopping at The district in Henderson. BRAVO! read more

*** This review is for the Jim 3 House of Performing Arts *** I've been to Bishop Gorman several times to see shows in the Jim 3 House of performing Arts. The Jim 3 entrance is directly across from the stadium entrance. The performing arts center has both an auditorium for large productions and a smaller black box theatre. The seating in the main theatre is classic high school auditorium. There is a proscenium stage and the seating is arranged in three sections, left, center, and right--standard seating for many theatres. Seating is comfortable. If I had any quibble with the auditorium it would be that I think the pitch of the seating should be a greater degree to ensure better viewing when you have a tall, big hair person, or inconsiderate jerk who sits there with a hat (oh there are more jerks than you think, male and female). Last night, I attended a production of Stephen Sondheim's "Into the Woods." The lighting in the theatre was well designed. Most of it is above the first few rows in a ceiling area, and it's very much out of the way and unseen. Sound in the theatre is great! Actors could be heard easily whether speaking in low volume or above. I really like the theatre and hope to see many more productions here. read more

Not worth the time, money and effort. The administration holds the kids to a higher standard than it is willing to follow. They seem to be more interested in the school brand than the development of students. They omitted my son's class picture from the school yearbook last year and have yet to make retribution. They also and misspelled his name on his MVP plaque. The coach told my son to have us call the trophy company for a correction. At a recent jv basketball game, they had to enlist a YMCA worker to coach because BGHS did not have enough coaches which put the players at risk. In conclusion, you are buying some rich friends when you join the BGHS Community. read more

So far, not impressed. The admin office staff is rude, condescending, and ignorant. For 1400/month, I think they should know kindness is free. They bombard you with useless communications but somehow they failed to notify us about summer work being due. I mean come on? I hope the quality of teaching will not be equally disappointing. We shall see! read more

My son attended Gorman several years ago, and it was the best experience that is incomparable to any other local academic institution. Gorman isn't only a place of learning, but a place where everyone including parents and siblings feel as if they are part of a very large family. You won't go wrong sending your children to this amazing school. read more

First of all, I would like to start out with that I have attended Bishop Gorman for three years now. From Freshman year to now the overall quality of the school has dramatically dropped. The new food service "touch of sage" is literally terrible. Everyone who I have talked to thinks the food is absolutely repulsive. I got a horrible stomach ache from the food the last two days. The only reason people come to Gorman is cause the lunch is so good, but not anymore, its literally trash. Im so disappointed, I will be bringing lunch to school for the rest of the year. I know many other people are as outraged as I am!! read more

Pulled my daughter, TERRIBLE school. If your not varsity football or "big name" in town, your looked over. They could care less about others, it's horrible. I'm just upset I didn't pull my daughter out after Freshman year!!!! BG is NOT the Catholic School you THINK it is, the coaches are terrible and choose people on their name. Beware! read more

I attended this school as a catholic years ago. My first year wasn't too bad but I ended up having to leave the school my junior year do to extreme bullying, horrible teachers, and horrible administration.... I had things going on at home that cause me to look very sad in class... I'm in theology class when he sends me to the office and accuses me to be on drugs! I had to share all my personal information with the office just to support myself. Telling them to give me a cup to pee in cause I've never taken a drug in my life! I was 16 years old! And I was depressed. The bullying never stopped and the office didn't do anything. My dean didn't do anything. But really just told me to laugh it off. This person bullied me on social media, in text, and would send horrible messages to my dad. The school did nothing at all. No probation or suspension. I would be yelled at for standing and conversating with someone during lunch. Being forced to sit down and stay there. Most of my teachers never went over last nights homework, never explained well, and tho I studied hard, I would still do badly due to the lack of teacher expertise. The only teacher I would give a 5 stars to is Dr Wattenbarger. She is an amazing English teacher and even tho she was a little tuff she taught amazingly. Anyway. I regret coming here. I wish I went somewhere else for my own well-being. Don't pay ridiculous money for this school. Your kid will do a lot better online or at a better public school. The kids at Gorman are beyond spoiled and make fun of the kids who don't have the most. read more

Such a beautiful baseball field and comfy seats. Lots of parking available and signs clearly posted if you're in a foul ball zone. I love their score board and how clean everything is. read more

Our Daughter is just finishing up her Freshman year here. She is in all the Scholars classes, swims for her school, and this year participated in Marching Band and Jazz Band! She has experienced tremendous growth at this school and we couldn't be more pleased with our choice to have her go here. Course work is challenging to keep up with when involved in outside activities (our daughter swims year round approximately 9+ practices per week). We are not Catholic and have enjoyed all the information our daughter shares with us from her Theology class. The school offers a great High School experience! read more

Bishop Gorman is the opposite of a Catholic, college prep school. They have a great party scene and sports, but that's all they have. They sweep problems like sexual harassment and bullying under the rug, which I have personally experienced. The deans at Bishop Gorman rather punish students than get to the bottom of a problem. If they prioritized their struggling students over their football team and pleasing their donors, they could become an excellent school college prep, Catholic high school. read more

Here for a football game, the facility is nice but the concessions are slow, not enough people working the booth. You'll miss half the game waiting in line. They play their PA system so loud you can't hear yourself think. I actually got a headache from it. read more

This is a tough review; Having had a kid go through 4 years here I have some thoughts. Discipline seems to be an obsession here. I read the un-recommended review and I agree with that portion of the review. Kids get called into the office and are manipulated, threatened and encouraged to rat on friends. Phones are taken away and searched, Twitter is stalked Instagram is watched like a hawk. The "random" drug tests are NOT random. The kids whose parents contribute $$ are never tested. The kids are very aware that the kids whose parents contribute are treated differently. But like I told my kid; with money comes power, welcome to the real word! My kid had a teacher who was horrible, she had a lot of personal issues which adversely effected her teaching thus hurting the students. Several parents complained and moved their kids out of the class yet the teacher is still there. That's the worst part or public schools, bad teachers stay. When I'm paying, I don't want to pay for my kid to be taught by subpar teachers. Now the positive and the positive certainly out weighs the negative. When you visit this school you feel the magic of Gorman. The campus is jaw-dropping. The kids open doors for you, they look you in the eye and speak to you. The student body general character is such a cut above public school that for that reason alone, paying the tuition is a must. My kids friends are all amazing, intelligent kids whom have a bright future. Their is a school spirit here that is palatable. Their sports programs are untouchable. As far as the education they receive; the fact that 98% of kids go onto college says a lot. The SAT and ACT scores that my kid and all scores I've learned of are all way above average. But the big positive is; I've heard from countless recent alumni whom have gone away UCLA, UA, UCSD, UCB, LSU to name a few and they ALL have remarked on how well prepared they were for college and were dumbfounded at how advanced they were in comparison to their college peers. So in conclusion, if my main complaints are that money talks and the discipline is sometimes excessive, than my kids 4 years there have been a success and the money spent on tuition is priceless. I'm sending my kid to a top college well-prepared with academic scholarships and all the tools needed to be an adult with character and the tools to achieve. Thanks to us parents and Gorman. read more

I have two sons attending Bishop Gorman and my husband and I are very pleased. Both of our sons began attending this school since freshman year and currently, one is a senior the other a sophomore. The overall education and the personal attention my sons receive from their teachers and counselors has been excellent. They are in an environment where education and high achievement in every aspect of life is expected and they have responded well to it. In addition, the school stresses the importance of being a responsible citizen of the community and requires all students to volunteer in the community for at least 100 hours total during their high school years. These hours of volunteerism and compassion toward those not as fortunate have contributed in forming my sons' character in a way that nothing else would. As a catholic family, I am happy that my sons are also learning about our religion. Overall, I am glad to have chosen Bishop Gorman High School for my sons as they are getting a quality education and have formed friendships that will last a lifetime. read more
