Kindergarten at Julie Billiart Schools
It may be summer but itโs not too early OR too late to be thinking about Kindergarten and your childโs educational journey, whether for fall 2025 or beyond. At Julie Billiart Schools, we offer a whole-child education program to set your child up for success. In addition to our academic curriculum, we are intentional in establishing a nurturing environment that allows your child to grow socially, emotionally, and developmentally.

A private school rooted in the Sisters of Notre Dame, Julie Billiart Schools seek to keep tuition and fees as low as possible to make our education feasible for all families. All students receive either the Ohio Autism Scholarship or Jon Peterson Special Needs Scholarship, and we offer additional need-based financial aid. To be considered for admission to any of our campuses, each child will need an Evaluation Team Report (ETR) and Individualized Education Plan (IEP) from their home school district or Autism Education Plan (AEP) and Autism Diagnosis.
Through innovative teaching methods, state-of-the-art resources, and a commitment to empowering every child, JB Schools provide a pathway to success for students who may have struggled in traditional learning environments. With over 70 years of excellence in special education and four campuses across Northeast OhioโAkron, Brecksville, Lyndhurst, and Westlakeโwe are dedicated to serving children with learning differences, providing them with the tools they need to thrive academically, socially, and emotionally.
We offer rolling admissions, and are still enrolling for 2025-26! For more information check out our Admissions Guide, call us at 216.716.8318 or visit JulieBilliartSchool.org.
