Learn-to-Swim

The award-winning Galter Life Center Learn-to-Swim program is designed for children 3-8 years old who have advanced through our Aquababies program and/or are ready to learn to swim independently in a group setting. The On-Deck Lead will keep you informed of your child’s progress and will address your needs.

Children must be able to perform all of the skills taught in the preceding Learn-to-Swim group before being allowed to participate in higher-level classes. If you have any questions or concerns on what level your child should participate in, please contact the Aquatics Department at glcaquaticsinfo@schosp.org.
