No session left
We are excited to offer a Winter/Spring session of after school chess on Wednesdays beginning 2/5. Chess has been proven to increase analytical and critical thinking skills. Chess makes creative problem solving into an enjoyable and stimulating game. Countless studies have shown that test scores, self - esteem, concentration and creative thinking increase after being exposed to chess. Students will be broken into groups depending on their ability level and learn from experienced and professional chess coaches.
Chess Club is open to grades K-5. The Winter session of after school chess will meet once a week for 15 sessions on WEDNESDAY afternoons from 2:50 – 3:50 PM. The dates for the program are: 2/5, 2/12, 2/26, 3/5, 3/12, 3/19, 3/26, 4/2, 4/9, 4/23, 4/30, 5/7, 5/14, 5/21, 5/28
. *If a class is canceled due to weather, we will hold a makeup class on a later date. The fee for the classes is $300. Please note, if your child qualifies for free/reduced lunch based on family income from 2023, they are eligible for a scholarship that will help offset the a portion of the cost of the program. **Please note, no class on 2/19, 4/16** Signups are electronic.
Students will have a chess lesson and then have puzzle solving challenges before having the opportunity to practice against their peers. Students will be assigned exercises to work on in between sessions. There is an opportunity to form a competitive chess team where they will participate in local tournaments.
