District seeks children eligible for services The Midland Park Public Schools is seeking children who may be eligible for services. Parents who are concerned about their child’s intellectual, physical, or emotional development may contact Midland Park Student Services at (201) 744-7400, extension 229. Federal and state regulations provide for services to children from birth to age 21. The state provides services for children from birth to three years of age. Services for children from ages three through 21 are generally provided by local school districts. In New Jersey, districts are required each year to engage in activities to alert parents of the availability of these services. A child is generally eligible for services on the date of his or her third birthday. It is important to note that not all needs of young children are serviced through this program. Related services such as speech and other therapies are only provided if the child is determined to require a special education program. Parents of children who will be three anytime during the school year should contact Student Services as early as possible if they suspect developmental delays in a child.
