Dear NEST+m Chess families,

NEST+m will host NYS All-Girls Championship on April 14-15.

We need many parents volunteers to make this event successful!  Please sign up to volunteer for NYS All-Girls Championship.


The food sales will raise money and hosting such an event will also likely provide good publicity for the school.
