Required for Class
Swimsuit
If you forget your swimsuit, it will be marked as an unexcused day. If you miss a day of swimming due to not being at school, please see me for any missed work. If you don’t have a swimsuit, you need to tell me the first day so I can accommodate.
Towel
Goggles if you have them

Sandals/Flip Flops: Optional
Grading
Your grade will be distributed by total points, which includes dress, participation, effort, homework, and assessments. I recommend you look up your grade frequently to be aware of your current grade. Grades will be updated on a consistent basis. If you ever have a question about your grade, please ask me. Incentive trips cannot be taken unless all swimming dates missed are made up.
Parent notes can be used for temporary purposes, but doctor notes need to be used for longer periods of time. Students will need to make-up the swimming classes.
