Forward in Faith
Cardinal Gibbons High School seeks to lead Catholic education back to prevalence as a culture-defining experience in the US that inspires lifelong learning, faith, service, and leadership in its students and alumni.
We cultivate a thriving community of learners that embody the values, impact, and relevance of Catholic education for the modern world.
We are called to embrace the mission of Jesus Christ through formational experiences for our students, both in and out of the classroom.
We invite our student body to experience and follow Jesus Christ, both now and in the future. Our faith informs our commitment to inquiry, our service to others, and inspires moral leadership of self and others within our church and community.
