In conjunction with the American Red Cross, our High School swimming curriculum is designed to extend water safety knowledge and swimming skills. This course work is a follow-up of the 4th and 5th grade instructional program offered at the elementary schools.
Students are pre-tested to determine current skill levels and then grouped into appropriate Red Cross swimmer classifications for a four and one-half week course. Teachers are certified Red Cross Water Safety Instructors and adhere to Red Cross teaching standards. Student who satisfactorily complete the minimum skill proficiencies are awarded Red Cross certificates at the appropriate level.
Instruction is provided in six comprehensive course levels that teach participants how to swim skillfully and safely. The prerequisite for each level is successful demonstration of the skills taught in the preceding level. Beginners start at Level 1, which has no prerequisite.
As a result of a unit in swimming, the students will:1. Develop health related fitness components including improved muscular strength, muscular endurance, cardiopulmonary efficiency, and body composition.
2. Develop neuromuscular coordination, balance, flexibility and kinesthetic awareness.
3. Develop an appreciation for participation in swimming as a life-long recreational and leisure time activity.
4. Develop knowledge of buoyancy, anatomical center of gravity and water propulsion principles.
5. Develop stroking adaptations to accommodate students’ individual body characteristics.
6. Develop the qualities of initiating good practice habits at ones own ability level in a heterogeneous grouping.
7. Develop self-confidence, cooperation, respect for others and self control in a group setting.
8. Develop knowledge of proper pool safety practices and classroom behavioral requirements in physical education.
