Health, Nutrition & Wellness Services
Whether it’s fresh and nutritious meals, our on-site fitness center, or our full-time safety, health, and wellness professionals, City Charter High School is focused on the well-being of the whole child, especially during their key developmental years. We provide the resources needed for a safe and supportive educational space because nothing should come between our students and learning.
Health Office
City Charter High School is staffed by a full-time Nurse to care for the staff and students of our school. In addition to dispensing medication and providing required health screenings, our Nurse can triage injuries and emergencies and also provide referrals to various specialized care providers when necessary.

Emotional Support Services & Wellness
Our school philosophy calls for the fullest realization of each child’s potential on every level – intellectual, social, emotional, and physical. Therefore, we offer proactive emotional support at City High, including three full-time mental health professionals, available to students, parents, and staff. We operate a Drop-In Program where students can seek emotional assistance without an appointment for themselves or refer a friend who is exhibiting behaviors of concern.
The ASCA/SSWAA’s recommended caseload* is 250 students per one counselor/social worker. City High provides 3 counselors/social workers to maximize support with a low counselor to student ratio of one counselor to 185 students.
