Bishop Gorman Catholic High School

Bishop Gorman Catholic High School

Starting with master planning and continuing through several phases of built projects, this new campus for Southern Nevada’s only Catholic high school is a blend of state-of-the-art technology and campus placemaking designed to last for generations. Courtyards paying reverence to traditional Catholic monasteries offer a protective, calming environment, while an iconographic central tower harkens back to the bell and clock towers of churches. Classrooms feature natural light, while clerestory windows allow natural light into circulation spaces as well. A 2,800-seat football stadium and Athletic Training Center, among other facilities, support Bishop Gorman in building nationally competitive athletic teams. A chapel, theater and commons facilitate arts, religious and social programs. The most recent expansion, featuring science and other classrooms, is the first phase to be built around a new collegiate-style quad.
