The pursuit of
excellence begins here.

Delivering a well-rounded education since 1897

Gilman is a pre-kindergarten through twelfth grade independent day school in Baltimore, Maryland. By educating boys in mind, body, and spirit, we seek 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.

Known

At Gilman, we know boys. They are bright, curious, and oftentimes, full of energy. But we don't just know boys; we know every Gilman boy in all his individuality.

Loved

Two Lower School students enthusiastically hug a third.

We endeavor to create an environment where boys come to school daily feeling loved and appreciated for who they are by their teachers and classmates alike.

Challenged

A group of students confidently sing during a school musical number.

When students feel safe and cared for at school, they are ready to learn, create, and play. Gilman teachers and coaches challenge through curriculum and expectations to help boys develop strong character, a lifelong love of learning, and the drive to be their best selves.

So that he can make our world a better place.
