School Policies

Registration Policy

The registration fee for our swim programs is $95 per program and is nonrefundable. A $10 discount applies for each additional child registered, up to three children. Please note that we do not provide refunds on registration under any circumstances. We appreciate your understanding!

Session Commitment & Attendance Policy

When selecting a session, please ensure you can commit to the full duration of the course, as attendance is essential for your child’s progress. Choose a session that aligns with your schedule to avoid conflicts such as travel or vacations. Makeup lessons are not available after the session period ends.

Consistent attendance is crucial—if all lessons are not completed, your child may not meet the requirements for advancement. Please note that in-pool parent participation is mandatory during the final week to ensure proper parent education.

Swim Diapers Policy

Triple coverage is required for all children under 4 or those who are not fully potty trained. This includes:

  • A disposable swim diaper

  • A washable fabric swim diaper

  • A swimsuit or shorts of your choice

Children must have these protections unless they have been accident-free for at least 6 months. Fabric swim diapers are available for purchase as needed.

Towels Policy

Please bring 3 towels to place on the pool deck:

  • 1 towel to protect against the heat from the deck 

  • 1 towel to shield your child's head when they "flop" down

  • 1 towel to cover your swimmer

Food/Drink Policy

  • No fruit (in any form) before lessons

  • No milk or dairy products for at least 4 hours prior to swimming, including baby formula, cheese, yogurt, smoothies, and yogurt-covered raisins.

  • No celery, fast food (e.g. Chick-fil-A nuggets and fries), or processed junk food before lessons.

  • A normal diet can be resumed after lessons are completed for the day.

Sick Policy

  • Fever over 100°F: please have your child wait 24 hours after the fever breaks before returning to swim.

  • Diarrhea: please have your child wait 48 hours before returning to swim.

Our Foundation Begins With

  • 🛟 Survival First, Always

    The focus is on teaching life-saving survival skills before swimming, ensuring children are equipped to handle emergencies in the water. No parent should ever experience the loss of a child to drowning.

  • 🌊 Confidence in the Water, Confidence in Life

    Water safety lessons build confidence, empowering children and families to face life’s challenges with strength and resilience.

  • 🚫 No Shortcuts, No Excuses

    Safety is non-negotiable. We do not cut corners or rely on flotation devices as a substitute for skill-building.  We teach real survival skills, ensuring every child leaves with the ability to survive an aquatic accident.

  • 🤝 Community Over Competition

    We collaborate with families, healthcare providers, and organizations to create a shared culture of water safety, making safety education accessible to all.
