I Can Swim is having Bring-a-Friend Day

    Thursday, February 24th
    4:00-5:00 pm
    We will have extra coaches on deck to keep this event safe and fun.

Please encourage your swimmer to bring a friend and share some fun in the water (and, it is a great way for your swimmer to see how well they are doing!).


Session 2 Interim Reports

Interim reports went home Thursday, or are going home today.  I wanted to make a comment on the number of numbered skills achieved so far this session (top section of report).  When starting the program, a large number of skills are achieved as we evaluate introductory skills that many kids already know, or learn very quickly.  Now, in the middle of the program, the hard work is underway and achieving numbered skills is more difficult.  I want to stress, however, it is not because your swimmer is not progressing - many have made great progress in the swimming strokes (developing proper kick, pull, timing and breathing), there are just fewer numbered skills to achieve.  If you have any questions or comments, please let me know - or come down to the pool and watch (we love having interested parents).

Happy swimming,
Marina
