[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t know of a school where swimming is mandatory. Is this Lowell? They are the only school I can think if with a pool. While I am sure it is miserable (especially at that age) it is really good for everyone to know how to swim just in case.[/quote] Holton Arms. [/quote] Is taking a swimming class mandatory at Holton or there is a swimming requirement for graduation that can be satisfied by passing a swimming test?[/quote] Passing a swimming competency test is mandatory to graduate from the Upper School. The test is usually at the end of 8th grade for returning students and during end of summer orientation for new students to the US. There is also a swimming component to the mandatory Fundamentals of PE class that must be taken in 9th or 10th grade. For students that don't pass the test, there is a class that is offered. [/quote]
