We are in need of Chess sets and instructional materials for our Chess Club! Our goal for this year is to grow interest in Chess through a Chess Club that can have fun playing Chess and learning the game after school. We will also teach good sportsmanship, how to maintain calm and think critically, and how to use a Growth Mindset to improve skills every single day! We also want to give students a place after school where they feel they belong and we believe Chess will help improve the confidence in themselves that will carry over into the academic environment.
