Winter After School Classes At MAGE.

Introducing, Chess Team and Go Class After school!

For the first time since the pandemic, we are opening up some enrichment programming after school for Non-MAGE students. This gives others in the community a chance to interact and network while receiving enrichment with other gifted families.

CHESS

MAGE is offering a chess team experience for students not enrolled at the school. All levels welcome. We are partnering with Nexplore to deliver the same high quality, award-winning Chess program that our students receive during the school day, but in a team experience focused on tournament play. Students will learn tournament notation, how to analyze moves, and additional play strategies.
