(continued from page 3) With this newest expansion of services, The Fair Lawn campus will serve children with special needs ages 18 months - 5 years of age and The Midland Park campus will serve children ages 6 - 13 years of age. “The growth and changes that I have been privileged to be a part of have been awe-inspiring,” said Upper School Principal Laura DelDuca. “We are taking our children to new levels in education and therapies – using the latest techniques and equipment to assist them in reaching their maximum potential. This newly-created school and now additional three classrooms will bring our services to even more children who could benefit. We are doing work from our hearts, and I think it shows,” she added. CTC provides educational and therapeutic services for children with severe developmental disabilities. The students in need of very specialized services as a result of major medical issues, genetic disorders, neurological problems and chromosomal abnormalities. “Our Upper School at Midland Park children are benefiting from the same quality programs – in addition to our education and therapies - that they enjoyed at the Fair Lawn Campus: ballet, special adapted swim, therapeutic horseback riding, parent and sibling support programs, sports and movement, yoga and so much more. I think that these additional opportunities are what sets us apart and makes us who we are,” DelDuca said. CTC will thank Bolger for his longstanding support by honoring him at its upcoming gala, “Shine”, which will celebrate its anniversary of 60 years of service. The event will be held at The Venetian in Garfield on June at 6:30pm. For more information on The Children’s Therapy Center’s programs or the Gala, contact Audra Hoffman at 201.797.7440 or e-mail, ahoffman@thechildrenstherapycenter.org.
