CHESS
IS A POWERFUL TEACHING TOOL!
Renaissance
Knights Chess Foundation is a non-profit 501(C)(3)
organization which provides affordable, fun and high quality
chess education to schools and community groups through
their enrichment programs and during the school day as a
supplemental curriculum to the existing core curriculum.
We use chess as a learning tool to teach
higher-order thinking skills, problem solving skills,
advanced math and reading skills, behavioral and social
skills, self-directional skills and build self-esteem in
students. Our researched-based programs cultivate
progressive learning for 21st century students and the
skills they acquire are imperative for them to
succeed in school and for their future success in the global
information society.

helps kids make all the right moves!
