​Takes place every Wednesday in room 119 (Mr. Nickerson's room) during the noon hour (12:15 p.m. - 1:10 p.m.).

This club is open to everybody. We play table top strategy based games (cards, boards, whatever). Some games include Magic: The Gathering, Settlers of Catan, Chess, Checkers and many others. If you don't' know how to play, we can teach you.  

Strategy based games can help with developing problem-solving skills, resiliency, deductive reasoning, social skills, visualization and innovation techniques and even helps to build a sense of community. Games such as these can also help with increasing communication skills, self-esteem and confidence.
