We are getting incredible TV media coverage during my chess promotional event today. They want to support chess and education. The Principal and Vice Principal of Central Catholic Elementary decided to have chess as part of the school curriculum. Bravo! Therefore, every child from K through 4 will have chess as part of their regular school classes. We are making progress, one school at the time. That you Corpus Christi!
Chess Daily News from Susan Polgar
Now I see why there were SO MANY KIDS in the chess club picture below! They are all exposed to chess during the school day. Wonderful news Susan!!
Someone else responsible for bring chess to schools is David MacEnulty. My daughter and I enjoyed his first “Chess for Children” video when she was 4.
A movie about his efforts in the South Bronx is debuting on the A&E channel on Tuesday December 6, 8pm EST.
It’s called “Knights of the South Bronx.”

Thanks Michael. I know David well and I will probably see him this weekend in Houston.
Best wishes,
