Challenger Elementary School is located in the center of the Klahanie housing development and was built in 1988 to serve Klahanie families. This neighborhood feel contributes to strong parent involvement and to the school’s importance as a community center. Beginning in the 2012/13 school year, Challenger became home to many Grand Ridge kindergartners living in the Issaquah Highlands. Challenger is unique because we have eight sections of full-day kindergarten.

Challenger’s Vision Statement is: The Challenger community will create a positive, friendly, and respectful learning environment where staff and students feel safe, are willing and encouraged to take risks, and individual learning styles are recognized and nurtured. The Challenger staff works hard to ensure school a safe and happy place where all individuals are positive and respectful of one another. Positive, expected behaviors are reinforced daily by all staff members.

We are also very proud to be a King County Level 4 Green School. Please watch the video below to learn more about our sustainability efforts.
