Building Character…
Achieving Excellence
Serving families in Albany and surrounding districts since 2007.
HENRY JOHNSON CHARTER SCHOOL
We Believe Scholars Can Achieve Academic Excellence While Developing Exceptional Character.
We embrace an educational philosophy of love and hard work coupled with a rigorous curriculum grounded in basic skills, outstanding literature, and moral virtues. HJCS provides a nurturing environment of high expectations and accountability that equips all scholars with the choice to determine their success in life.
Our Mission
The Mission of Henry Johnson Charter School is to ensure that all scholars reach the highest levels of scholastic achievement in an environment that instills character, virtue, and “habits of mind” that ensure success both within and outside the classroom: diligence, courage, respect, self-reliance, duty, and responsibility.
We serve families in Albany and Surrounding districts since 2007.
We do more than graduate students. We have happy graduates on their way to higher levels of success.
We don’t just teach, we laugh & play harder.
We all work diligently in the spirit of excellence, like our namesake Sergeant Henry Johnson

🎉☀️ What a way to celebrate the last day of school at Henry Johnson Charter School! ☀️🎉
Our scholars wrapped up an incredible school year with an action-packed Field Day filled with fun, laughter, and unforgettable memories. From exciting games and activities to delicious treats, it was the perfect way to kick off summer break!
A special highlight of the day was the cotton candy, popcorn, and snow cones provided by Three Sisters Party Co. 🍿🍧🍭
We extend our heartfelt gratitude to Raymour & Flanigan for their generous donation that made these treats possible, and to Darnell Holloway, stepfather of Jacob and J’merie, for helping bring this opportunity to our school community. Your kindness and support helped make our scholars’ last day extra special.
Thank you to our families, staff, supporters, and scholars for another amazing year of learning, growth, and achievement. Have a safe, fun, and relaxing summer, Bulldogs! ❤️🐾
