Julie Billiart School

Can a voucher be used at Julie Billiart School?

Yes, if the school is taking scholarship students this year. Ohio's state school directory (OEDS) lists Julie Billiart School (IRN 056911) as a chartered nonpublic school, the kind that can enroll EdChoice, EdChoice Expansion and Cleveland Scholarship students. Most families near Lyndhurst use EdChoice Expansion, which pays up to $6,166 for grades K-8 for 2026-27 and tapers above 450% of poverty; a child who lives in the Cleveland district would bring a Cleveland Scholarship instead.

Because this is a special-education program, the bigger money is usually a disability scholarship rather than a voucher: Jon Peterson pays $10,045 to $34,000 for 2026-27 depending on the category on the child's ETR, and the Autism Scholarship up to $34,000. Confirm that the school bills the one your child would use.

As a Catholic school in the Diocese of Cleveland, families can ask here about Diocesan Tuition Assistance, the school's Angel Scholarship application and parish aid, and high school families about the diocese's named special scholarships.

What should we ask Julie Billiart School before we enroll?

1. Will you file a Cleveland Scholarship or an EdChoice application for my child for 2026-27, and are seats open in that grade?
2. Once the voucher is applied, what do we still owe, and what do registration, books, devices and uniforms add?
3. Do you discount for siblings or members, award need-based aid, or receive money from a tax-credit SGO?
4. Which documents do you need from us to file the application, and when?
5. Which scholarship do you bill for students with IEPs, Jon Peterson or Autism, and which of my child's services happen on site?
