The Knight School

The Knight School, founded in 2007 by Dr. David Brooks, has enjoyed a vibrant and ever-growing history. The idea began as a high school chess team and quickly expanded to elementary and preschool classrooms throughout Central Alabama. The Knight School now brings this chess party to learning centers, schools, and after-care facilities in over 18 metropolitan areas nationwide. Grandpa's boring chess class has now evolved into raging chess parties across the nation! This unique, high-energy, curriculum-based approach to teaching chess gets kids learning and solving problems while building lasting life skills. The Knight School frequently has openings for part-time, school coach positions; visit for more information. TKS is also looking for entrepreneurs who might be the right fit to continue to lead the chess party in new cities! Catch a glimpse into life as a chess coach here:
