- Students must have completed Level 1 last year, or one week of Level 1 this year, prior to enrolling in Level 2.
- NO REFUNDS for swim lessons; please choose the correct time and skill level for your child.
- If a class fills, waiting lists will be available and additional classes/spots may be added if appropriate.
- Evening lessons are in high demand due to limited pool space and time. Please refrain from enrolling your child in the same level for more than 2 sessions; we want to teach safety skills to as many children as we can!
- Lesson schedule is subject to change and may be altered to accommodate demand.

Skills include: water entry and exit; submerge mouth, nose and eyes; exhale underwater; use of life jackets; float on front and back; explore arm and hand movements; explore swimming on front and back; follow basic water safety rules; and open eyes underwater, submerge to pick up an object. Students will learn basic skills in freestyle, backstroke and breaststroke.

Students must have successfully completed Level 1 (or at a skill level to the equivalent) in order to register.
