Athletics
Gill St. Bernard's School has a proud tradition of athletic excellence throughout its history. Athletics play an integral part of the overall educational experience of our students, reinforcing our core values of courage, integrity, respect, compassion, and excellence through competition, practice, and team-play. During these times of social distancing, our coaches and staff remain committed to the overall health and development of our student-athletes, and we eagerly await their return to the playing fields.
At GSB, our athletes are ambassadors of the school, expected to conduct themselves with honor, integrity, and sportsmanship at all times.

It is inspiring and humbling to see the amount of championships that Gill St. Bernard's has won throughout its history, especially in recent seasons. As a coach, it reaffirms the importance and desire of bringing home a trophy while maintaining the highest levels of sportsmanship and respect.”
Nolan Silbernagel, Sports Information Coordinator and Head Swim Coach
As a GSB student-athlete, I learned how to be a leader, developed lasting friendships, and made countless memories competing at a high level. Bonding with my teammates, on and off the field of competition, defined the highlights of my high school experience.”
