[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's such a waste of instructional time. They should cut it, and it would save a lot of money too.[/quote] When my kid was in 3rd grade a few years ago, no APS student had died from drowning since the 70s, when the swim unit was instituted. Not sure if that stat still holds, but I wouldn’t call it a waste of time.[/quote] +1. It’s not a waste of time at all.
