Chess Club
Welcome to the Franklin Chess Club. Our club meets every Wednesday
from 3:15 to 4:00 in the cafeteria. Students from kindergarten through sixth
grade are welcome to participate. You don't have to know how to play
chess, just have a love for the game. Many of our members have played
in chess tournaments around Bakersfield.
