Chess anyone? At lunchtime or after classes, students flock to our extracurricular chess clubs for camaraderie and intellectual challenge. They have a blast playing with their friends and learning the ways of chess, all while developing critical life skills. At a CIC chess club, life skills like Communication, Critical Thinking, and Self-Management are purposefully woven into the fabric of the curriculum. These skills, these clubs, are great for everyone.
To help you find the program that suits your needs, we’ve created a handy grid. Take a look and see which program fits you best. We guarantee that once you try our chess activities, you’ll never look at the game the same way again!
Subsidies are available for students in need!
