Moving Pieces at Cranberry High School

Cranberry High School has established a chess club consisting of about 35 students, ranging from seventh graders to seniors. This addition to Cranberry’s clubs and interest groups is advised by Colin Milne, the school’s librarian and faculty member. 

Members meet in the library twice a month to compete in chess matches as pairs. To gain levels in the club, students are tested on their knowledge of the game. 

While the club began as an opportunity for seventh graders last year, it has boomed into a school-wide group.
