ADVANCED SWIMMING LEVEL
GREEN signifies a SAFER child in the water; this child can swim a basic freestyle. However, all children need to be supervised when in and around the water, we recommend constant adult supervision when in and around the water.
PREREQUISITES: Students must be able to swim 20 feet of freestyle with side breathing and a basic backstroke.
