Fugman Elementary

Mission Statement
The vision of the Fugman Elementary Chess Team is to develop important leadership skills in our students while providing a fun, competitive, and engaging atmosphere that encourages cooperation and friendship.  The Chess Team is designed to nurture critical thought in young minds while teaching students how to communicate and execute complex ideas.  While doing so, the Chess Team will foster a healthy sense of sportsmanship that will prepare students to succeed in life.  This is an inclusive team that aims to incorporate students throughout Fugman Elementary as well as other students in the Fresno/Clovis area when participating in local tournaments.
