OUR MISSION
Gilman is a diverse community dedicated to educating boys in mind, body, and spirit through particular emphasis upon academic excellence, athletic participation, and aesthetic appreciation. Gilman seeks to produce men of character and integrity who have the skills and ability to make a positive contribution to the communities in which they live and work.
OUR COMMITMENT
Educating the Whole Boy
For more than a century, Gilman’s mission has remained exceedingly focused: to unlock the greatness within each boy by educating the entire boy—mind, body, and spirit. To accomplish that goal, we provide space and opportunity for crucial learning and self-expression to take place. We believe that boys experience transformative learning when they connect disciplines, people, and ideas in ways that deepen their sense of self and serve the needs of others.
Our rich and comprehensive program, our immeasurably talented and interesting faculty and students, and our belief in the character traits embodied by the Gilman Five—Honor, Integrity, Respect, Humility, and Excellence—combine to form the foundation of an educational environment dedicated to helping boys grow into men of character.
Community, Inclusion, and Equity
Gilman’s commitment to inclusion and equity is founded on the belief that our community is strengthened by the vibrant exchange that occurs when individuals with different backgrounds and heritages share their perspectives with one another. Through the recognition and acceptance of our many differences, we learn to appreciate and respect the complexity of the world in which we live and develop essential skills that help us forge productive relationships with those around us.
We are proud of our history as a school that has, for several generations, taken the lead on matters of diversity, inclusion, and equity. More than 40% of Gilman’s student body and 20% of the School’s faculty identify as people of color. We continue to build on that legacy through our steadfast commitment to inclusivity and equity and initiatives on local, state, and national levels.
OUR SCHOOL
Gilman School is a pre-kindergarten through twelfth-grade private independent day school for boys. Set on a 57-acre campus in the northern part of Baltimore City, Gilman serves roughly 1,000 students in three divisions. The School has a full-time faculty of nearly 140, and the average class size is 16 students.
FOREMAN FELLOWSHIP
Gilman School annually offers the one-year Foreman Fellowship to recent college graduates who have a strong interest in teaching. The Foreman Fellowship honors Johnnie Foreman, Gilman’s longtime Director of Community, Inclusion, and Equity and one of Gilman’s most beloved and outstanding faculty members.
Foreman fellows benefit from the coaching of a mentor teacher and a range of unique professional development experiences.
The Foreman fellow can be assigned to Gilman’s lower, middle, or upper school depending on the candidates’ interests and experiences, as well as the school’s annual needs. Specific classroom responsibilities for the Foreman fellow will vary. Most fellows initially observe and shadow their mentor, gradually assuming instructional leadership as the fellowship unfolds.
The Foreman fellow will coach interscholastic and intramural sports and support co-curricular programs, in addition to their work in the classroom. He or she will assist with advising and counseling as well.
