Leotards Needed!

Finances are an issue to most of our students' families
and one way we seek to help is by furnishing
each new enrollee with a leotard.
 
Two Students in New Leotards!
How does Aim High Academy obtain leotards?
Through donations of gently-used leotards!
 
We greatly appreciate donations from:
Big Hearts / Little Leos (Facebook page of Maddie, a gymnast)
Students of The Little Gym (Tulsa)
Carol White
And many others!
 
Our leotard program allows our students to trade up
a size when needed.
 
Our leotard rack is getting bare!
Aim High especially needs the following sizes:
Child's Small, Child's X-Small, and Child's XX-Small.
We can always use Child's Size Mediums & Larges
and Adult Sizes.
 
You can help put a smile on a child's face
by donating any gently-used, clean leotards
you, your children, your grandchildren, or your friends might have.
 
Donations can be mailed to:
Aim High Academy
8177 S. Harvard Avenue #424
Tulsa, OK 74137
 
Donations can be brought to Aim High Academy
at 4501 W. Edison in Tulsa
Monday-Thursday from 5:30-7:00 PM.
(Please note that we are closed when Tulsa Public Schools are closed)

FIRST DAY OF FALL SESSION CLASSES

TUESDAY - SEPTEMBER 4, 2012
 
 
 We are thankful to have such wonderful coaches and volunteer teachers
for our precious students.
 
Classes begin with lots of stretching!
 
 
Many of our classes are full already!
Class sizes are limited so that each child receives several turns practicing his/her skills.
 
THEME FOR SEPTEMBER 2012:
"God Made Everything"
 
Each class ends in prayer
and each student is reminded:
"God made me special and has a plan for my life."
 
We are looking forward to another great year!

WALL ART

 
We are blessed to have wonderful volunteeers!
 
Just before Fall Session kicked off,
one of our faithful volunteers spent many hours decorating our walls
with happy, colorful gymnasts and Bible verses
to inspire and encourage our precious students.
 


 
 
 
 
Thank you, Laurie,
for blessing Aim High
with these wonderful murals!
 
We appreciate all of our volunteers
who contribute so much to our ministry.

Gym Clean-Up Day - August 25

Freedom Church
(Owasso, Oklahoma)
sent over 30 volunteers to clean our gym
before Fall Session began.
 
 
First order of business:
move all equipment and mats

 


All vinyl mats were cleaned...
 

The floor was swept and mopped, then
all equipment and mats were moved back.
 
It was an all-day job,
 and the two shifts of volunteers worked hard.
 
Thank You,
FREEDOM CHURCH!
 
You have blessed Aim High Academy!
 
"Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid...
Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works,
and glorify your Father which is in heaven."
Matthew 5: 14,16.
