Campus News June 2022

School may be out, but our campuses are bustling with activity. Here’s a behind-the-scenes look at all that we’re doing to prepare for another amazing year at JB. We hope you enjoy these quick summer updates from our campuses.

JB Akron

Our largest renovation project to date is well underway. While the project is set to conclude in December, the majority of construction is taking place now. We are excited to show you a couple of sneak peeks! This project will create larger classrooms and learning spaces for our Akron kiddos and teachers.

JB Lyndhurst

We are making some modifications and general updates to our Lyndhurst campus in preparation for our students’ return. The interior at Lyndhurst will be getting some uplifting touches of blue paint throughout the building. One major project is the complete renovation of the front steps from the parking lot to the main entrance.

The other project we are really excited about is the creation of our outdoor classroom space. It will be complete with adirondack chairs, outdoor tables, and plenty of spaces for our students to work in a comfortable outdoor environment. This space was generously donated by Sister Barbara, SND, and her family. We are so incredibly grateful for their kindness to make a space like this possible.

JB Westlake

Construction in our lower level is making great progress in these early weeks. We cannot wait to welcome students into this reimagined space in August. Check out these teasers below!

Another exciting project taking place at our Westlake campus is the update of our playground area. The new playground will be complete with a new jungle gym and eight swings! We can’t wait to offer this updated space for our students to enjoy. The newly renovated playground is set to be completed by the fall.

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!
