After School Enrichment

The Centennial PTA provides terrific after-school learning programs for our students. The PTA After School Enrichment programs have provided varied experiences for over 100 Centennial students over the course of a school year! In years past, Centennial PTA has offered enrichment programs in Spanish, Drama, Science, Art & CraniaLogix, just to name a few.

Registration occurs at the beginning of each semester. Programs typically last 8 to 12 weeks. In order to maintain the quality of our After School Enrichment programs, space is limited and are filled on a first come, first served basis.

Remember! If you decide to Enroll a Child to Participate in our After School Programs, at least one parent will be required to sign up for a parent volunteer shift as part of the After School Enrichment program. Volunteer activities include help with check-in, snacks, clean-up and check-out. All volunteers must complete the PISD online volunteer application EACH YEAR in order to work with our students. Please take a moment to complete it today by clicking here.

Please see our Program Participation Policy to ensure the continued safety and

quality of these PTA programs

The students will learn the basic rules of chess, study openings, middlegame, endgame, basic checkmate patterns. They will also learn basic tactical exercises (pins, forks, double attacks, skewers, etc.) and look out for tricks and traps. As they grow stronger, they will learn to spot simple combinations and master the simplest methods of attacking and defending. The purpose is to teach the student to see the chessboard, find hidden threats and connections between different pieces, and coordinate the pieces to achieve one goal. Decisiveness, discipline, analytical thinking, focus, and patience are essential at this young age when thinking patterns and habits are developed. Chess accomplishes all of these qualities.
