CWC built Our Lady of Good Counsel’s new school during their relocation from Wheaton to Olney during the mid-2000s. The 3-story building sits on a 54-acre lot, providing a much bigger and improved space for the school’s growing population. It includes 50 classrooms, seven science labs, art and music rooms, a food court-style cafeteria, a modern media center, two gymnasiums, a football stadium and running track, and game and practice facilities for each athletic team. The 10,000 SF cafeteria and dining area accommodate over 1,300 students and faculty daily, including an outside dining terrace. The new athletic complex contains over 30 acres of fields for softball, baseball, soccer, field hockey, and lacrosse; a 400-meter running track with high jump, pole vault, long jump, and triple jump; and a 2000-seat football stadium, entered through a concession stand that serves as a sports ticket office and restroom facility.
CWC returned to Good Counsel’s campus during the summer of 2023 to renovate the existing building, making interior modifications to better fit the school's needs.
