Parent Reviews
Excellent campus and teachers.
My child attended Challenger Harwood for 2 years of preschool and kindergarten. We've had a great experience with teachers who are caring and take an individual interest in each child. Challenger makes learning fun through song and play/games, promotes confidence and personal responsibility. My child has matured tremendously through her time here and has developed a genuine love of learning and a passion for reading. She has also made great friendships and has developed trusting relationships with all the adult staff, from her teachers to the preschool and kindergarten directors, before and after school care staff and head master. They all know her by name. This is a fantastic school with a great curriculum. I highly recommend it!
