Special Abilities Swim Program

The developmental swim program will provide a positive outlook and emphasis on the strengths and unique attributes of each swimmer. Our program will focus on water education, developing water safety and swimming skills. The program’s goal is to help each child become physically active, build self-confidence and self esteem, learn the life-saving skill of swimming, and eventually to offer them another avenue for integration into a small group for high functioning special abilities children.

Each class is 30 minutes, one time per week.
