The Tama-Toledo Aquatic Pool Board is committed to offering a swim program that provides opportunities for youth to learn basic swimming skills in a group environment. Every effort is made to ensure the safety of all participants during the lessons. Therefore, instructors and students must follow rules pertaining to safety and instruction.
Normally, students in levels 1- 3 will not be allowed to dive off the board during free time due to safety concerns. Instructors may be in the water with students most of the time (lower levels especially) but must also be out of the water to evaluate strokes from the deck (upper levels).
The cities of Tama and Toledo employs certified Water Safety Instructors as much as possible; younger instructors are certified Water Safety Aides who can often motivate and work closely with the younger students. Games may be used to encourage practice of skills and new techniques. Free time at the end of each class is given to allow children a recreational swim; instructors are responsible for their classes until the end of the period. Testing, grading and evaluations are always approved by the Site Director.
If you have any questions about the skills involved or about the administration of the program, please contact the Director, Jamie Upah at: [email protected].
