The International Chess School’s mission is to benefit children through chess education.
The International Chess School promotes chess as an effective educational tool in curricular classes and enrichment programs for elementary, middle and high schools, in both the public and private sectors.
The International Chess School sponsors tournaments for those students, who seek the competitive aspect of chess in order to help and motivate them to higher levels of intellectual achievement.
Chess, one of the oldest and most challenging games, is a pedagogical tool for young students, through which they learn critical and analytical thinking, ownership over their decisions, and discipline, which are integral and applicable to other intellectual endeavors and life skills.
