For a few hours on Wednesday night, Natick’s Brandon School boys forgot about their daily routines of studies and therapy to put on a boisterous talent show and celebrate their multicultural backgrounds.
“It’s just fantastic to have all the families here” said Tim Callahan, the school’s executive director as he surveyed the Christmas light and decoration-bedecked gym that had morphed into party central.
The Brandon School is a residential treatment program for troubled boys between ages 7 to 17. The average stay for kids in Brandon’s long-term program is a year, said Callahan, though some are able to leave earlier while others stay up to two years.
