Bishop Gorman Hall of Fame

As Bishop Gorman celebrates its 70th year, we reflect on our legacy and accomplishments throughout our history. One thing that is missing from our tradition is formally acknowledging the outstanding achievements of our community.  With the rise in popularity of high school sports throughout the country, it is impossible to ignore the extracurricular accolades of some of our most high-profile graduates.  After much consideration and discussion, the Administration at Bishop Gorman High School has decided to celebrate the accomplishments of our community with a Hall of Fame. 

Our Purpose

The intent and purpose of the Bishop Gorman High School Hall of Fame is to recognize the alumni, athletes, teams, coaches, staff, and supporters who have contributed in an outstanding and significant way to the Bishop Gorman High School tradition and legacy.
