Swim Lessons/Swim Team

Youth Swim Lessons

The Washington Park District swim lessons are divided into four different levels.  Please sign your child up in the level you feel best fits them.  At the start of each session children will be tested and placed in the appropriate level if needed.  Weekday lessons consist of eight class periods. For all aquatic lessons, if we are forced to cancel due to the weather, the next corresponding day will be the makeup day if possible.

Washington Water Jets Swim Team

Competitive swimming on the Washington Water Jets will offer an opportunity for children to develop their skills as a swimmer in a competitive atmosphere.  Techniques will be improved in butterfly, backstroke, breaststroke, and freestyle strokes. This program is not intended to be a substitute for swim lessons.  The ability to independently swim the length of the pool is required. Being part of a swim team fosters social development for the swimmer as well as the whole family.  Signups are typically held in April/early May.  Practices begin in early June and are typically held in the morning hours.  Meets and invitationals are held on Tuesday/Thursday evenings and Saturdays. See our summer brochure for further information or check out the website.
