Summit School of Chess

Our mission is to not only promote chess but to develop gains in cognitive thinking abilities within our students. We strongly believe that an individual that possesses even a fundamental understanding of chess acquires the lifelong skills that include, but are not limited to, developing logical thinking, planning, evaluating, focusing, and problem solving. These achieved skills form better decision makers and more productive members of society. Chess encourages you to explore your intuitions in a more in-depth, logical and creative approach translating into real life skills. Chess players use their intuition to formulate a list of possibilities and evaluations which allow the player to ultimately conclude with the best option presented or to create a new option altogether!
