Thank you to all the schools and students who participated in Tuesday CPS Fall Online Tournament! We had a total of 60 students representing 14 schools across the district — a strong showing on Veterans Day.
In the Middle School/High School (MS/HS) Section:
🥇 Ryan Huang of Whitney Young Academic Center and Esen Munkhtur of Lincoln Elementary shared first place, both scoring 3.0 out of 4.
In the Elementary (K–6) Section:
🥇 Vivaan Patkar of Skinner North claimed clear first place with a perfect score of 5.0. And there was a four-way tie for second place:
- Ethan Huang – STEM
- Stanford Liu – Skinner North
- Rowan Powers – Bell
- Charlie White – Blaine
👏 Congratulations to all participants for their great performance and sportsmanship in the Fall season!
We appreciate everyone’s effort in getting their students ready, and competing.
Your commitment continues to help our students grow their skills, confidence, and sportsmanship through chess.
