HJCS has established a Wellness Policy for review and adoption by the HJCS Board of Trustees.

Henry Johnson Charter School administration will assess current activities, programs, and policies available within the school; identity specific areas of need within the school; develop policy; and provide methods of implementation, evaluation, revision and updating of the policy.

Henry Johnson Charter School wants its scholars to enjoy rich, rewarding and healthy lives. Following healthy eating habits is an important component in meeting this goal and the school is committed to providing nutritious meals and snacks that will keep scholars on the path to a healthy diet. Henry Johnson Charter School participates in the Community Eligibility Program (CEP) through NYSED Child Nutrition. Through this program all scholars at HJCS are eligible to receive a healthy breakfast and/or school lunch at no charge to your household. School breakfast and lunch are served daily.

We ask families to complete the Household Income Eligibility Form every fall. We urge parents and guardians to fill out a new form whenever a significant change in family income occurs.
