Campus
Gilmour's 144-acre (0.58 km) campus has experienced significant growth and expansion in recent years. The Lynn and Michael Kelley Middle School houses a Broadcast Media Center and Digital Media Lab where students can learn and practice with digital media technology. The Lorraine and Bill Dodero Center for Performing Arts was completed in early 2020 and opened with The Broadway Princess Party and Beauty and the Beast, Jr. Also opening its doors in 2020 was the Nature-Based Learning Center, which is home to the giving garden and in close proximity to the "Gilmour Girls" chicken coop and apiary. Our Lady Chapel (which opened in 1994) serves as a venue for liturgical events and student convocation. Gilmour's Athletic Center (which opened in 2009) houses a pool, main gym and a three-court field house and the Floyd E. Stefanski Ice Center houses two NHL-sized ice rinks and a fitness center. New artificial turf was installed in 2020 in a multiple-use field for football, soccer, and lacrosse.
