"Check Mate!"  We love hearing those words in Chess Club!  Welcome to the web page of Rock Spring Elementary School's Chess Club!  This club provides an after school opportunity for students to engage in playing the challenging game of chess. It is currently open to all 2nd through 5th grade students who already know how to play the game.  Chess Club has been part of RSE for many, many years and we are SO excited to get started!    

Chess Club meets 2 Mondays a month from 2:45 to 3:45.  Our first chess club meeting will be on Monday, September 23rd, 2024, and our final meeting/party on May 12, 2024. Students who want to join the club have to fill out a Parent Permission Slip (will be going home soon) & return it to their teacher. We love to show our chess club spirit by wearing chess club t-shirts each Monday. More information will be coming home to our chess club members so be on the lookout.

We could use extra hands during Chess Club; so, if you or another adult you know plays chess and has some free time on Monday afternoons, please contact us at jessica.forsythe@henry.k12.ga.us andn darlene.smith@henry.k12.ga.us .
