We are excited to offer a Winter session of After School Chess on Thursdays beginning January 8 . 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. This will be taught by National Master Abby Marshall and Coach Alanna.
Thursday Chess is open to grades 2-4. The Winter Session of Thursday Chess will meet once a week for 10 sessions on Thursday afternoons from 2:45 – 4:15 PM. The dates for the program are: 1/8, 1/15, 1/22, 1/29. 2/5, 2/12, 2/26. 3/12, 3/19, 3/26.
*If a class is canceled due to weather, we will hold a makeup class on a later date. The fee for the 10 Thursday classes is $210.
This is ideal for students who wish to improve their chess skills, learn new strategies and eventually compete in a tournament at the novice level. Our coaches provide fun and engaging chess instruction. They work to foster chess growth and spread their love of chess with the student population.
**Please note, no Thursday chess class on 2/19, 3/5** Signups are electronic.
We have scholarship opportunities for a portion of the class tuition if your family qualifies for free/reduced lunch based on 2024 income. If you have any questions please e-mail [email protected] or send a text to 914-772-8277
