The Appian Board Game Club is a new after school activity for students . By playing tabletop strategy games, students develop critical thinking skills while engaged in a fun and challenging activity. Students also have the opportunity to practice important social skills like cooperation, negotiation, and communication. Helping young people to develop these skills will give them the tools they need to achieve success both in the classroom and throughout their lives. The program currently supports board game clubs at schools near Appian’s headquarters in Tysons Corner, Virginia.
