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!

Take the Next Step
Our Lyndhurst and Westlake camp programs have reached capacity. As of 1/23/23, all further Lyndhurst or Westlake registrations will be added to a waitlist. Families are still encouraged to complete the registration form to be added to the waitlist. At this time, Beyond Camp Akron has a few remaining openings.
While fun and full of social activities, this therapeutic camp is a specially designed, data-driven experience that measures growth, development, and mastery of new skills. Beyond Camp is strategically structured and staffed to help prevent summer learning loss and promote social skills and academics through community-based experiences.
By enrolling in a camp program that is designed exclusively for them, children with learning and social challenges can continue to develop positive behaviors and social skills during the summer months, while at the same time engaging in fun, age-appropriate activities. Beyond Camp helps children with unique learning and social needs including high functioning autism, ADD/ADHD, and other learning differences, build essential social, communication, and academic skills.

Outside funding may be available for camp from the agencies listed under "Assistance". If you receive funding from an agency, you will need to follow their guidelines for applying for assistance. The agencies will advise Julie Billiart Schools of any award. After receiving notification, Julie Billiart Schools will make adjustments to your account.
Payments can be made through FACTS, Julie Billiart Schools' payment portal. We will send you additional details upon registration.
The Autism Scholarship may not help cover the cost of camp this year, as the Scholarship amount is not announced until summer. If remaining funds are available to apply toward camp, families can request an authorization form.
Applying for county funding is the BEST option for receiving assistance. We encourage ALL families seeking financial assistance to apply for county funds ASAP.
We recommend families apply for financial assistance through local support programs ASAP. Please apply before committing to Beyond Camp.
In past years, most families who have applied for these programs received up to $1,000 in direct camp assistance. Call your local office to request financial assistance for camp services. If a referral is required, please contact 216-691-8916.

My kids love everything about JB and look forward to going to school every day and seeing their friends and teachers. JB is truly a one of a kind school enriching young lives everyday.
JB Parent
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
All of the teachers and staff at JB are patient and willing to take the extra time to make sure we, as parents, understand and are comfortable.
JB Parent
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.
Tammie Sommer
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.
