Academic support, with a focus on improving literacy
“I know first-hand what the A’s & Aces program offers to students from disadvantaged backgrounds. Through our partnership, our school’s vision and mission are realized as students are encouraged to develop academically and athletically while building character through the life skills portion of the program.” |
Successive phases of programming are planned to help build public middle and high school teams, and institute a “Pathway to College” program for committed students at hub facilities with courts and academic centers when Katrina-damaged New Orleans Recreation Department tennis courts reopen. More
A’s & Aces is one of the 602 National Junior Tennis & Learning (NJTL) chapters – the only chapter in New Orleans and the only First Serve chapter in Louisiana. As a First Serve Chapter, A’s & Aces students are eligible to participate in the NJTL Student-Athlete Competition among students from other First Serve chapters and compete for scholarships.
