Bateman Chess Team Newsletter

Feb. 4, 2020
 
Dear Parent(s)/Guardian(s),
 
            In order to prepare for some of the upcoming state and national chess events, I am requesting that parents complete the form below to indicate your interest and availability.  Please return the form by Fri. 2/7.  The most immediate priority is the IL State Championships in Schaumburg on Mar. 21-22.  The Chicago Chess Foundation is sponsoring some free entries for families who would otherwise not be able to afford the opportunity, which requires an application that I must complete by Feb. 9. 
            CPS is also offering to sponsor eight Bateman players for the K-6 National Elementary Championship in Nashville, TN on May 8-10.  This opportunity requires early registration and planning as an official field trip. 
            Lastly, the K-12 National Championship in Columbus, OH is scheduled for April 3-5.  There are already a few families planning to travel to this event, so the more the merrier!  Information for each of these events is available on the Bateman chess team website: http://bateman.cps.edu/bateman-chess.html
             
If you have any questions or concerns, you can contact me at acgeisler@cps.edu or (773)534-5055.
Sincerely,
Mr. Geisler
