ABOUT US

Our Lady of Bethlehem School and Childcare's mission is to provide a superior education in a safe, well-structured Christian environment to all children we serve.  In each aspect of a student’s education and development, Our Lady of Bethlehem continues to advance in curriculum and assessment and provides comparative excellence in education and staff.  Our Lady of Bethlehem's offering focuses on children from ages 2-1/2 through Kindergarten, and maintains a high teacher-to-child ratio. 

The school was opened in 1957 by the Sisters of the Poor Child Jesus, based in the Netherlands. After finding such success in establishing convents and schools throughout Europe, the Sisters of the Poor Child Jesus expanded to North America.  Our Lady of Bethlehem Convent was founded in Columbus in 1956.

The following year, the Sisters established Our Lady of Bethlehem School as a Kindergarten program. Since that time and in that tradition, offerings have broadened to include Totally Terrific Two’s, Preschool, Pre-Kindergarten, and a comprehensive Childcare, all of which offer optimum care and the ideal early childhood education.
