Early Childhood Education Franchise Opens in East Louisville, Brings Well-Rounded Program to the Community

EAST LOUISVILLE, Ky., June 24, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Celebree School, a leader in early childhood education that provides infant and toddler care, preschool, before and aftercare, and summer camp programs, opened its newest school on June 23. Located at 13307 Magisterial Dr., the new school will provide a customized program that addresses the physical, social, emotional, and academic needs of children while adhering to Kentucky's early education standards.

Celebree School in East Louisville is owned and operated by local entrepreneur Brittany Gentry. Gentry is a dedicated educator, proud mother of three, and military spouse with deep roots in Kentucky. Inspired by Celebree's mission and values, Brittany saw the school as the perfect way to combine her passion for children's education and her desire to serve her community. With a background as a kindergarten teacher, teacher's assistant, and PTA president, Brittany brings hands-on classroom experience and a love for helping children grow and thrive. Her husband Trey, a Tech Sergeant in the U.S. Air Force, will transition to veteran status in early 2025, supporting Brittany as she leads the first of three Celebree Schools they plan to open. Their school is a testament to their dedication to fostering a safe, nurturing environment where families feel supported and children can flourish.

"Opening Celebree School of East Louisville is an exciting opportunity to create a nurturing environment where children can grow, learn, and feel confident," said Brittany. "I'm proud to bring my experience as an educator and my passion for fostering positive, supportive communities to this new chapter in our lives. This journey is not just about education—it's about making a lasting impact on the families we serve, and I'm thrilled to help children reach their full potential every day."

Celebree School lives by its promise to Grow People Big and Small™, and was founded on the belief that success in early childhood development is equal parts curriculum and a connection that extends beyond the classroom to address the needs of the whole child and the whole family. Each Celebree School is a village made up of parents, children, and educators while providing curriculum-based care that prepares your child for kindergarten and beyond.
