[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just dont get the obsession with swimming pools. Grounds for a track or flat outdoor space? Yes, absolutely. But many many great high schools across the US do not have swimming pools. I can't shake the feeling that people are advocating for these not because they care about student needs, but rather because they just want another local pool to swim at.[/quote] The issue is that Arlington curriculum requires swimming instruction. So, if a pool is not on-site it becomes difficult to offer that since it takes more than one class period to get a bunch of kids over to another pool location, change, have class, change, come back. I do wonder how HB is handling that? Or do they just have some waiver to not provide swimming instruction?[/quote]
