This is the best private school in the DMV. The teachers are organized, encouraging and helpful. The school is all about academics, spiritual growth and development. If a child cannot do well here then they can't do well anywhere. This school is prepared to motivate children into learning. The teachers are available and reasonable. My son's honors government teacher allows the students to email them when he is doing homework. If you are looking for a great education and well rounded development then "Our Lady of Good Counsel High School" would be the best choice. Gauranteed.

This is my son first year at GC, he really likes the school.It reminds me of an college campus. From academics to music to art and sports there is something for everyone.And that helps children socially I think. The has more than enough extracurricular activities. If you are having problems with a class, there is help.It is up to you to seek the help. The children support each other, of course it is not perfect.If you want your child to get a great education and good social skills,good counsel is the school for you.

Community ratings and reviews do not represent the views of GreatSchools nor does GreatSchools check their accuracy or verify the reviewers' identities. Use your discretion when evaluating these reviews.

About these ratings

The Community Rating is the school’s average rating from its community members (e.g., parents, students, and school staff). The highest possible rating is five stars; the lowest is one star.

We currently do not have any test score information for this school. Unlike public schools, private schools are not always required to report data about their schools or not required to take the same tests as public schools. Many private schools take different standardized tests; however, that information is often made available only to families of enrolled students. We strive to acquire additional private school data whenever available.
