Dalton continued its cherished annual tradition with the Kindergarten Chess Friendly, kicking off the First Program Chess Friendlies series. This cornerstone event in our community celebrates chess education and youth development, bringing together kindergartners, Middle School volunteers, chess coaches, and parent volunteers.

Twenty Dalton girls in grades K-9 represented Dalton to compete in the New York State Girls Chess Championship. Gathering the largest girl chess players from all NYS schools, Dalton squared off against almost 500 of New York State’s top chess players.
