The 51st Morrison Chess Scholastic Tournament was held on February 1 at the Ladera Vista Junior High School gymnasium and proudly hosted by the Fullerton Lions Club. We are thrilled to share that seven of our Elementary School students participated in this prestigious tournament and all of them earned placements! Their hard work, strategic thinking, and dedication to the game truly paid off. Each student demonstrated remarkable focus and sportsmanship throughout the competition.

Congratulations again to our young chess champions - we’re proud of you!
