We conduct educational chess programs, in-curriculum, as an elective, or as an afterschool activity at many schools.

Our tournaments are rated by the U.S. Chess Federation, and our camps, mini-camps and special events have proven to be very popular.

Most of our programs are primarily for elementary school students, although we believe in chess education for all ages!
