BCPS Wellness Policy

The Board of Education of Baltimore County (Board) has updated the Wellness Policy and Rule 5470 in order to ensure that BCPS is committed to providing a school environment that promotes student health, well-being and ability to learn. The revised policy and rule are consistent with the federal Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act of 2010. The Board of Education acknowledges that students need access to healthy foods and physical activity, health and counseling services and the support of the school, family and community to grow, learn, and thrive.
