Downey Chess Club, LLC mission: Helping students become the future leaders of tomorrow. We do this by providing after school enrichment programs for all students (grades K to 8th) that combines strategy, tactics, and STEM Education, in order to prepare them for the future and allow them to reach their full potential.
Robotics Club: Building & coding program helps students learn the fundamentals of STEM education and 21 century skills needed to become the future leaders of tomorrow. This Robotics Club also helps elementary and middle school students prepare for high school robotics programs. Fun fact: Robots are also known as Unmanned Ground Vehicles UGV. Examples of robotics programs that we use are listed down below.
Lego Robotics
REV Robotics
VEX Robotics
Gobilda Robotics
Arduino Robotics
Micro:bit Robotics
Ai Robotics
Drones Club: This drone program completes our STEM education by uniting air and ground. We teach our students that drones are simply flying robots, unlike ground robots seen in school robotics programs. This club helps students learn drone technology and theory using basic electronics like brushless motors, flight controllers/electronic speed controller, receivers RX and transmitters TX, propellers, video transmitters VTX and more. Customizing drones fosters creativity, as children explore various configurations, designs, and functionalities, encouraging innovative thinking. Lastly, this club gives students the opportunity to build and fly drones. This hands on experience helps them understand flight dynamics, electronic control mechanisms, and the importance of flight time. Fun fact: Drones are also known as Unmanned Air Vehicles UAV.
Chess Club: Life is like chess. Every move you make in life determines your future.
Chess teaches our students to become leaders, that govern their destiny through decision making and strategic planning, learning while having fun!
Club de Ajedrez: La vida es como el Ajedrez, cada movida decide tu futuro.
Aprende llegar a ser un Líder, que sabe hacer movidas para el futuro.

“Chess teaches foresight by having to plan ahead, vigilance by having to keep watch over the whole chess board, caution by having to restrain ourselves from making hasty moves and finally we learn from chess the greatest maxim in life. That even when everything seems to be going badly for us, we should not lose heart, but always hoping for a change for the better, steadfastly continue searching for the solutions to our problems.”
---Benjamin Franklin
