S “Cheenano” W · 5/5 on Google · 6 months agoBoth my kids go to Challenger at Pond Springs. Great place, excellent curriculum. After going here i see a very good change in them in all aspects. They feel confident and they read & write very well. I wish they had up to 8th grade. It will be great if they have the following features as well 1.
