Challenger Program

Closter's "Differently-Abled" Challenger Program was established 20 years ago for students of all ages who attend Northern Valley District schools.  The "Differently-Abled" Challenger Program includes baseball/t-ball in the spring, basketball in the winter, and a horseback riding program held in both the spring and fall.
