Chess in Schools

Intersection of Logic and Creativity

Chess in the Schools is a transformative educational initiative that leverages the complexity of chess to cultivate the next generation of strategic thinkers. Operating at the intersection of logic and creativity, CIS introduces a rigorous intellectual framework to New York City’s public school students, helping them master the art of focus, analytical reasoning, and disciplined decision-making. Through its structured curriculum and competitive tournaments, the organization turns the chessboard into a laboratory for life, where young minds learn to navigate challenges with confidence and foresight.
