​Thank you for your interest in the Chess Program at George Washington Carver School 87!  Indy Chess is excited to offer this program on Monday mornings beginning August 24, 2026 until December 14, 2026 from 8:15am to 9:15am in the Art Room.  Students in 2nd to 5th grade are eligible to participate (1st graders will be added to a waitlist in case the club does not fill), and no prior chess knowledge is needed! Students should be brought to Door 1.  The program will use the Coach Jay's Chess Academy curriculum.  There is no cost to register thanks to some donor funding Indy Chess received to help Title I schools.  Questions?  Email Jerika@indychess.org.  The chess club will be taught by Coach Jerika Eppel, a full-time coach with Indy Chess.  She is a 1500+ USCF-rated player, an accomplished tournament director having run the Arkansas State Championship last year, and she earned a Master's in Education from Johns Hopkins University.
