What We Do
Aces in Motion (AIM) is a sports-based after-school youth development program that supports middle and high school students who are committed to creating a bright future for themselves.
Upon joining the AIM family, students are welcomed into a loving, supportive environment. Students will participate in weekly tennis instruction with certified tennis coaches, academic time, homework help/tutoring, social-emotional development activities and are afforded opportunities to develop skills for life after high school.
​
Our goal is to prepare participants for success in young adulthood as determined by each individual student.
EDUCATION
AIM emphasizes academic achievement by providing 1:1 tutoring, homework assistance, college readiness, and school support services to boost student performance and confidence.
HEALTH
72%
of Black students in Alachua County
are NOT reading at grade level.
As a sports-based program, physical health is a priority for student development. Nutrition and physical activities help keep students focused and growing.
CHARACTER
AIM believes in supporting the whole child, including social-emotional health. Through mentoring, enrichment activities and peer to peer discussions, students become better equipped to navigate life's challenges.
