Staffing assignments are not finalized until the start of the season.

Class Levels All swimmers must register based on their age and skill level. Refer to the program description for the necessary skills by level. All skills should be mastered prior to advancing to a higher level. For returning swimmers, refer to the progress report for the approved class. Swimmers will be evaluated during the first class and may be required to move up or down a level due to their skills and comfort in the water. Siblings cannot be enrolled in the same class if they do not meet the age and skill requirements.

Class Procedures Participants should arrive in their swimsuit prior to the class start time and wait in the pool hallway for the instructor to take them to the pool deck. Swimmers should bring a towel. Goggles and swim caps are not required but both are permitted. Parents, guardians, and siblings are not permitted on the pool deck or bleachers and they may not assist in the pool. Family members can watch from the hallway only. For Parent Tot classes, only one parent/guardian may participate in the class. Class sizes vary by age and skill level. Children who are not fully potty trained must wear a waterproof diaper cover over their swim diaper.

Absences The instructor and supervisor do not need to be notified regarding an absence. Classes begin as scheduled regardless of if all swimmers are present. Make-ups, credits, and refunds are not offered due to absences of any sort, including illness and vacation.
