Is your student interested in learning more about the game of Chess or bettering their Chess skills? Mrs. O’Neill will once again be hosting the Saint James School Chess Club for students in grades 4 – 8. The first meeting will be on Tuesday, March 1st from 2:05pm – 3:00pm. The Chess Club will meet every other Tuesday through the end of May.
Permission slips should be returned to the office with the $20 activity fee in an envelope marked “Chess Club” if your child wishes to participate. Students who have a Chess set are asked to please bring it with them each week.
Also, Mrs. O’Neill is in need of at least one additional parent volunteer to help out with the Chess Club each week. Please see the permission slip for details.
If anyone has a chess set they are willing to donate to the Chess Club, we are in need of additional sets.
