Due to the limited space available in each session and class, a registration waitlist will be maintained.
Students will be asked to register in one of two categories – non-swimmer or swimmer. Students for non-swimmer classes will be required to have a parent or guardian accompany them in the pool during each lesson. For the non-swimmer classes, an instructor will be teaching and guiding the parent/guardian about how to help their child with the swimming skills being taught.
Prior to registering, please determine if your child is a non-swimmer or swimmer by matching the following benchmarks to your child's skill level. A non-swimmer would be categorized as a student with a skill level within benchmarks Swim School White Star to Swim School Green Star, while a swimmer would be categorized as a student with a skill level within benchmarks Stroke School Freestyle and Stroke School Backstroke.
Non-Swimmer Benchmarks:
Swim School: White Star - Submersion of face and body
Swim School: Red Star - Independent floating on back
Swim School: Yellow Star Self rescue and roll to breathe
To advance to Blue Star, a student will be expected to demonstrate the skills shown in the video below:
