JB Culture

Enrolling your child in Julie Billiart Schools means more than a quality special education. Know that you will be joining a family of teachers, administrators, therapists, and other families that are loving, inclusive, and welcoming to one another. We build relationships with families and provide the support they need to ensure continuity in their child’s world when he/she is not in school. Read more about our culture of love, acceptance, and belonging.

Onsite Therapies

Our team of therapists collaborate with one another and other faculty members to enhance Julie Billiart Schools' whole-child approach to learning. Behavior, Art, Music, Occupational, and Speech Therapists play a pivotal role in our students’ educational journeys, both one-on-one and within the classrooms. All onsite therapies are included in JB tuition and drastically reduce the amount of time families spend driving to and from after school therapy appointments. Read more about our onsite therapies.

open-quote Julie Billiart Schools gave us hope after our daughter was diagnosed with a learning disability. At JB, she thrived in the small classes, received necessary therapies, and developed the self-confidence to ask for help when she needed it.

open-quote They have all the resources necessary, specialized to the individual learning of each child, and the heart that goes with it. I don't think we would have stayed in Ohio if it wasn't for JB!

open-quote Julie Billiart Schools has helped my child become a better version of himself. The teachers and therapists at JB really know and understand how to reach children who learn differently.

JB Parent

open-quote I don’t think I will ever be able to put into words how grateful I am that you saw my daughter for all that she is today and all that she is yet to become.
