Welcome to Our Lady of Good Counsel Parish School!
The mission of our school is to form young minds and hearts spiritually, academically, physically and socially in the image of Jesus through authentic Catholic teachings within a faith-centered community of respect and compassion for others. Our focus is faith development, academic excellence and building community. 
Christ is the model and center of our school. Christian values are taught, modeled and lived by all members of the school community. These values begin with our gifted, caring and welcoming faculty and staff. They are highly competent and completely dedicated to providing the best learning environment possible.
It is our goal to offer an excellent education to our children whose diversity of learning styles are honored and whose individual differences are respected. We offer a comprehensive academic curriculum with expanding and enriching programs in all disciplines that fosters each child’s unique gifts and talents. Nurturing self-respect, self-discipline, decision-making skills, accepting responsibility for one’s actions and caring for others are integral to our academic program.
I hope that you enjoy exploring our website – and that you will consider beginning your journey at Our Lady of Good Counsel School. You are always welcome to visit Good Counsel and experience firsthand our special school spirit.
