  We love Challenger. Our son started preschool here as soon as he turned 3, and it's been nothing but fantastic. No woke agenda, and they really live up to their name, challenging the kids. At the end of pre-school, he was already doing simple writing, addition and subtraction, and reading at a second grade level. He's now nearing the end of kindergarten and he's reading 4th grade books like they are nothing at all! Whenever we talk to anyone about Challenger, they are known to have a reputation for academic excellence. The only negative things I've ever heard is that kids who aren't really bright may find it too hard and... well... Challenging! (It's in the name, folks!) We also like that they integrate singing and music and art and performance into the curriculum, keeping it very well rounded. As a final cherry on the sundae, we love that Challenger teaches kids about *actual* American history. They know about the founding fathers, the constitution, the importance of competition and hard work... and they pledge allegiance to the flag and sing songs about America. Imagine that, a school that teaches kids to actually love their own country! Kudos to challenger. It's schools like this that are why we left California.

  This review was based on an appoitment we made to tour the facility for our 2 year old. The campus was clean and bright, outdoor play looked fun although I would have expected some equipment to play with. We observed a small class of students around 5 that were able to demonstrate some lessons they learned about vowels and their sounds. When we reviewed the curriculum our 2 year old would be exposed to I was surprised on some of the advaced exposure to reading, however this was a plus. The staff that walked us through answering our questions, Kristin I believe, had very high energy and knew all the students that randomly came through during our tour. Everything looked great, again, we only received a tour. For the price associated with tuition, I would expect a little nicer of a facility, and a play yard that had more space for playing ball, this area was to accommodate all ages and visually speaking seemed to lack something. We are still shopping schools at this time to find a happy medium between curriculum and cost, this school has not been ruled out for us yet.
