Pre-Lesson Swim Assessments
Children who have never taken swim lessons are recommended
to begin in Paddlers 1 unless otherwise approved by the Learn-
to-Swim Coordinator or Aquatics Manager. If your child has
taken lessons at another facility or has taken lessons at the park
district but not recently it is recommended that a pre-lesson
swim assessment be conducted. Pre-lessons assessments are
free services provided to ensure students get placed in the
proper level. For more information and to sign up, please contact
Rebecca Reading at 847.579.4052 or [email protected]
Class Makeup Policy
The Park District does not guarantee a participant’s ability to
make up a class that is missed.
1. Limit of 2 make-ups per session.
2. Make-Up Request Form must be submitted and approved
prior to arriving to class. Forms are available in pool lobby
and on the website.
3. Participants can only make up at their level.
4. If a participant shows up to a class that is full, the class will
not be overloaded to accommodate a make-up.
5. Reserving a make-up slot and then not attending or
notifying the aquatics staff will count as the make-up.
6. Call Rebecca Reading at 847.579.4052 or [email protected]
regarding any questions.
