Description:
Swim & Gym is specially designed for our local homeschool children. Students attend Wednesday for the semester. Individual students are grouped with students of similar ability for both swimming and gymnastics. From 1:30-2:30 pm is swimming, which includes both a short instructional time (15 minutes) and free time (35 minutes). Then from 2:30-3:30 pm gymnastics and coordinated movements meet. Students receive credit through Berrien or Niles Partnership. American Red Cross certified swim instructors and experienced Andrews University Gymnics work together to provide an 8 week session of quality programming.
Parents must sign a waiver form in person on the first day of class for the gymnastics portion of the class. All participants must have personal insurance. For prompt communications regarding unplanned closures for weather, etc. please fill out this form: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeE5HSOn7mQuzgmMB7qyz98T6fb1R89M29VNBt4bHS4_md52w/viewform
Because this course is on campus, the university requires a parking sticker on your vehicle. The fee last semester was $10.00 annually. Stop by the Campus Safety office or register your vehicle online at https://www.andrews.edu/services/safety/parking/.
Students will bring appropriate gym clothes with socks and tennis shoes, a towel, and modest swimming attire including one piece swimwear for girls and trunks for boys.

*Please note: it is important to make as informed a decision as possible when choosing your student's Community Resource classes. Most locations will allow a student to drop a class after one meeting, at no charge if it wasn't a good fit for the student, but not all. Some classes plan ahead based on the number that have signed up and have purchased materials, hired teachers, etc. and there might be a fee for class time or materials given to the student if the student drops after one or two meetings. The school cannot pay for classes that students do not complete, so choose wisely; if you do not take the class off of your student's schedule by the deadline, you may be asked to pay for the class time incurred prior to dropping the class.
