Last night, the HBR Board of Education gave a Royal Shout to our Chess Team coaches and players. They are having a great season! Chess is a game of strategy and promotes executive functioning, problem solving, patience, creativity and more. We are proud of this team who is seeking a return to the State competition this year. The Royals compete this Saturday at 9:00 am against Ottawa. The matches will be hosted in the HBRHS library. #RoyalShoutOut #RoyalPride
