Dear KidsOutAndAbout.com readers:

Enrollment for the 2019-2020 school year has begun, and if you've been looking for a curriculum that will challenge your child to become self-reliant and productive, you must visit Challenger School. Challenger School offers preschool through eighth grade and operates 25 campuses, including six along the Wasatch Front. Challenger School’s results and methods set it apart from other schools.

Breathtaking Results
Challenger’s proven curriculum and teaching methods help students develop the skills needed to succeed in whatever they decide to pursue. As students learn foundational concepts and apply reasoning skills, the results are spectacular. On the 2018 Iowa Tests of Basic Skills (ITBS), Challenger students achieved average scores well above the 90th percentile.  The average percentile rank for Challenger kindergartners was 99.

Challenging Curriculum
Challenger School teaches reading, composition, math, history, and logic as essential bedrock subjects upon which literature, science, and other subjects naturally build. From preschool on, Challenger students regularly speak and perform before their peers, teachers, and parents. These repeated experiences help them gain the confidence necessary for effective public speaking. Challenger graduates point to these experiences as the basis for success in college and the workplace. Challenger’s curriculum and philosophy lead students to respect and protect the unalienable rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness expressed so brilliantly by our Founding Fathers in the Declaration of Independence and the United States Constitution.

Proven Methods
Students learn to identify and establish connections between ideas, and this linked structure of ideas—this understanding of an idea connected to other supporting ideas—gives students a deep and lasting understanding of the subject. Challenger's emphasis on independent reasoning results in their students’ extraordinary academic performance and their unique ability to essentialize what they learn and integrate and connect it with what they know.
