PS 889 Chess Club
From complete beginners to advancing tournament players our goal is that all PS 889 players can experience both the joy & significant social/educational benefits of learning and playing chess. Our PS 889 Team will prepare for local, City, State & National Competitions. Our in-person programming will match players into groups based on skill, interest level & age. This allows coaches to identify and create the right training environment for each player (complete beginner - advanced competitors).
Thursdays
NIA

Creating a seamless day between traditional school and our after-school programs enhances learning, and supports social and emotional growth in our participants.
