Posted by a parent on 10/11/2023First and foremost, the quality of education at SMS is subpar. The curriculum lacks depth and fails to engage students in a meaningful way. Teachers often resort to outdated teaching methods, relying heavily on lectures and rote memorization rather than fostering critical thinking and active participation. The lack of innovation in the classroom is disheartening and does little to prepare students for the challenges of the modern world.Moreover, the faculty at SMS has been consistently underwhelming. Many teachers seem disinterested in their subjects and show little enthusiasm in their teaching. The lack of passion translates into uninspiring lessons and fails to inspire students to explore and pursue their interests. Additionally, the staff's inability to provide effective guidance and support is a significant letdown. Whether it's addressing academic concerns or offering career advice, the school's staff appears ill-equipped to meet the needs of the students.Furthermore, the facilities and resources at SMS are severely lacking. The classrooms are cramped, outdated, and often in disrepair. The library is poorly stocked, with limited resources available for research or study. The absence of well-equipped science laboratories and modern technology further hampers the learning experience. It is clear that the school has neglected investments in essential infrastructure and resources, which is deeply concerning for any educational institution.Finally, the overall atmosphere at SMS is disorganized and lacks a sense of community. There is a lack of extracurricular activities and opportunities for students to engage in creative pursuits or develop leadership skills. The school fails to foster a supportive environment that encourages teamwork and personal growth. This deficiency in creating a positive learning environment has a detrimental impact on the students' overall experience.
Posted by a parent on 6/18/2023This school isn't good and they dont really care as much for there students. The teachers were mean and discouraging. However some ( a very few) were nice and helpful.

N/AGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI am a parent of a child who transferred to Challenger from public school. He had a great time in public school and the teachers were very dedicated, but we wanted a different curriculum and more challenging homework for him. He's absolutely thriving in Challenger, even though it does require more reminders and supervision on our part, just to make sure he completes the assignments. He's already fairly social, and he adapts easily to new environments, so we haven't had any issues with the transition (although kids with a different temperament may experience a new school in general, and Challenger in particular, differently). Overall, we're glad to have him attend the school. It does require a lot of work on his part compared to his previous school, but he's learning a lot and he loves attending. We both work full time and were interested in a school that we could trust to direct and support his education - Challenger works for us.Parent Review1y ago
