Swim Lesson Special Note: If you plan on registering for more than one session of swimming lessons,
please register for the level your child is currently at throughout. Most
children require taking a level more than once to complete the
requirements. If your child passes a certain level, and you already have
enrolled them in that level again in an upcoming session, please contact
the Aquatic Supervisor to transfer your child to the next level. It is easier
to move a child ahead than to move them back if they do not pass.
Instructors will test skills on the first two days of lessons to make sure the
child is in the appropriate skill level. This means the child could move up a
level or down a level according to his/her present skill level.
