Service to others is one of the many ways Falcons make an impact beyond Good Counsel.

We're proud to recognize Alexander Nelson ’27 for his work with the Grassroots Intervention Center and his commitment to helping those in need. His dedication to serving others reflects the values that unite the GC community.

Well done, Alex and continue to be an inspiration to our other Falcons!

The SAGE team at Our Lady of Good Counsel was honored with this award for outstanding performance in our dining program. This recognition reflects the hard work and dedication of the entire team in providing a dining experience that is second to none in the Capital Region.

Freshman Food Service Director David Vanderslice, Executive Chef Michael Kahn, and Assistant Food Service Director Zeke Garcia all credited the program’s success to the dedicated cooks, servers, and stewards who make it possible every day. Many members of the team have served the Good Counsel community for more than 15 years, and we are proud to see their commitment and excellence recognized.
