Capitol Hill Chess Club is open to students of all abilities, whether they are learning the rules for the first time or striving to win state championships.
Rose City Chess’s students have been part of multiple state championship teams, including OSCF Team State Championships in 2019, 2021, and 2022. We use the Steps Method as our core curriculum, which provides structured lessons for children at all ability levels. All students will receive a free Steps Workbook included with enrollment.
Enrollment currently limited only to Capitol Hill students.
