Join the Division Street School Chess Club

Chess club is open to all Division Street Student Grades K-5, and no prior knowledge of the game is necessary.  

Our first meeting is scheduled for Tuesday, October 3rd @ 8:15am  

No advance sign-up is required, and players are welcomed to visit anytime over the year as interest and scheduling permits.

Parents: Please sign the students in when you drop them off.  

What do we do at Chess Club?  

• Work with brand new players to get them to a basic level of knowledge to start playing the game, ASAP 

• Provide opportunities for kids to play matches with each other to test and develop their skills.  

• Review chess puzzles to work on tactics and strategy 

• Have fun playing chess! This is a game that can be played slowly over hours or with a timer creating a fast paced and high energy game that is sometimes better suited to the desires and interests of kids.
