[quote=Anonymous] They probably have a 1-5 ratio or even 1-7 which is fine given probably 2/3 the kids can do a basic stroke. If they go with friends who are encouraging, kids may be more comfortable going underwater as its more fun with friends. My kid has gotten others under water who wouldn't as he'd just play and make it fun. My concern is the locker room in a public pool as anyone can enter and are there enough staff to supervise. Getting kids to at least doggy paddle is a great idea.[/quote] What do you mean "probably." Obviously you never asked. Ratios are NOWHERE near what you say. Ask the school or ask your child. When we did it, they had two adults teaching swimming - one PE teacher and 1 APS aquatics person - for 50 kids. [/quote]
