About Aquatics

When registering for swimming lessons, please check your schedule carefully as we will be charging a $3 fee for each change or cancelation. Thank you!

PRICING: We are using a sliding scale model for program fees so our summer aquatics programs can be financially sustainable and more equitable. Families are asked to pick the price that they are able to pay. By more clearly articulating our lower cost options, we have removed the barrier that some may have felt in making scholarship requests. When families participate at the higher price levels, they help make the program more sustainable.
