K-12 Programs


Elementary School Program

Celebrate the Children provides a comprehensive program based on the educational and developmental levels of each student. CTC’s kindergarten through grade five students engage in a full academic curriculum in Reading, Language Arts, Mathematics, Science and Social Studies, in addition to Physical Education, Music, Art, Technology, and Life Skills. Beyond the core curriculum, the DIR approach is incorporated to support the social, emotional and developmental growth of the students.



Middle School Program


Middle School is characterized by a time of rapid physical, emotional, and intellectual growth. It is a time where students begin to strengthen their independent learning skills and adjust to their individual changes both physically and emotionally.  The heart of our curriculum continues to promote the development of meaningful connections within and across the disciplines while continuing to support the developmental foundations that need strengthening. 

CTC students in middle school engage in a full academic curriculum of Language Arts, Mathematics, Science, Social Studies,  Art, Health, Physical Education, STEAM,  Life Skills, and Outdoor Education.  Students’ courses  are tailored to their Individualized Education Plans. In addition, the DIR approach is integrated into all aspects of the curriculum, helping students develop critical thinking and problem-solving skills and promoting social-emotional growth.


​
High School Program

Celebrate the Children follows the NJDOE requirements for course level credits and graduation requirements with any exceptions outlined in the IEP. Most students follow a traditional schedule with varied teachers and classrooms. This helps support executive functioning and independence as the students have greater responsibility and expectations to fulfill these requirements. 

CTC students in high school engage in  a full academic curriculum of Language Arts, Mathematics, Science, Social Studies,  Financial Literacy, Arts, Health, Physical Education, Life Skills, STEAM and Outdoor Education.   Students’ courses  are tailored to their Individualized Education Plans. In addition, the DIR approach is integrated into all aspects of the curriculum, helping students develop critical thinking and problem-solving skills and promoting social-emotional growth.
