Grab a tissue. Sit down. And watch this moving video on alum Cam Hart & his journey to the NFL. You wont find a more mature young man. Proud to call him a Falcon. Proud to see his dream come true. Nobody more deserving. Keep chopping wood. @CamHart_ @OLGCHS @UnderArmour #NFL
Football will change your life, if you let it. Watch Cam Hart forge his own Path to the NFL Draft @CamHart_ | @Chargers

Excelling academically begins with great facilities. There are so many factors you might be looking for when choosing a high school. Beautiful campus grounds. Convenient and safe location. A 650 seat, state-of-the art performing arts theater...

Become a GC student for the day on a shadow visit. We’ll pair you up with a current student and you’ll get to walk the halls, taste the food, and ask questions in real time while you get to know students who could be your fellow classmates next year. olgchs.org/inquire

Good Counsel legend. Rest in peace, Coach!
It is with a very heavy heart we share the news of the passing of Tom Kolar. There are few individuals in the history of GC who have meant so much to so many as Tom. For more than 50 years of service he inspired, enlightened, and encouraged generations of Falcons #foreverafalcon

.@louuuyoung got my attention with his "Shleve Harvey" skits, but I could tell he had been through some things and was more than just an athlete doing funny skits. His journey is just getting started, but he has already proven that with grind and faith your vision will come true.
