We did not have a good experience with Challenger School. The school is very secretive with their daily activities, the students don’t tell much, at least in pre-K. Until it comes to blatant breaks in discipline like flat out bullying and throwing educational supplies back at their teachers. Then they’re “taken to the principal’s office”. The overall perception is - parents are not allowed to see what is going on because it is an absolute mess back in the classrooms. Students’ possessions and clothing aren’t taken care of, students are being bullied… absolute mess. Not worth the investment.

Great school with academic rigor and discipline. My daughter spent two years at Pre-K and partially K (due to COVID). They have built great academic fundation as well as set learning discipline for my kid. She has now pursued GATE program in BSD but really appreciated and pleased with Challenger School and all the teachers there. Highly recommended.

Both of our children have attended and we couldn’t be happier. Our son was able to get into the city’s gifted program because of the teaching he received from his great teachers. Our daughter is currently enrolled and we really appreciate how much her teachers work with her.

This school grows followers not leaders as they claim they do .... Tuition is outrages and they have too many closed days where parents have to find alternative care

I love the education provided for my son. He is full of pride when he accomplishes difficult tasks which are routinely asked of him. Homework is assigned 4 out of 5 days and completed during the after school care. I feel like the teachers care about my son. The uniform policy is a little ridiculous and very costly on top of an already outrageous tuition fee. Not to mention the uniforms can only be purchased from Scholarwear which is owned by the founder of Challenger's daughter. No parent involvement is encouraged.
