Sandy

Both children have been here 3 years since we moved from Seattle. They love their school and we have been very impressed with the teaching staff over the years.

So my son has speech delay and during the school year was going to school with the normal district ti try and catch up before kindergarten. In no way was he ready. He tested with this school and they said he's too behind for kindergarten with them but they took her for kinder prep summer school and just a week and a half he has had so much progress as well as done more work and brought it home to show me daily which never happened with the district. He also is very happy to go here, every morning he tells me what he's most excited for at school. Once he can come here full time we will be for sure. The place is very structured with pick up and drop offs as well as just so formal and structured like a school should be!

We've had our daughter here for the last couple of years - two years of preschool and now she's in kindergarten. It's unbelievable how much she knows - she can read a second grade level, her writing and ability to do math is excellent, and I couldn't be happier with her progress. The reason why we chose challenger for preschool and kindergarten is because of the reading program in particular. By the time they finish kindergarten, she'll be able to read about 80% of the English language because they teach them the foundation and rules so effectively. We are very happy that she is there.

Challenger has been the best thing to happen to my daughter! She has overcome anxiety and feels so confident and is excited to go to school each day. I love their program for encouraging kids to become the best they can be and how they show respect to the children. That's a rare thing! Every teacher she's had has been exceptional. Challenger is an investment we find invaluable. The location in sandy works well for us. The receptionists are all knowledgeable and the teachers are the best.

A great school with a great emphasis on Independence and academic excellence.
