Registration Procedures
Registration is accepted in person at the Recreation Center. Instructors cannot accept registration at the pool. Please read the class descriptions carefully to insure your child is placed as accurately as possible. Call John Hale for assistance, 415-383-6494 Transfers will be done if there is space available. If your child moves to a higher level than you had registered them, we will make every effort to accommodate a transfer. Group lessons cannot be exchanged for private or semi-private lessons. INSTRUCTORS CANNOT ACCEPT REGISTRATIONS AT THE POOL.

REGISTRATION REMINDER: Registering for an incorrect swim class skill level does not guarantee that your child will be placed in the correct level at the first class meeting due to class size limitations.

PLEASE NOTE: Last-minute class cancellations/registrations greatly affect class structure and limit the ability of the staff to set up assigned classes. Please register for classes in advance!

NOTICE: There are NO make-up dates for missed classes.

Lesson Policies
Participants may not make-up classes, which have been missed. If your child is sick the first few days of the class, they are encouraged to take the remaining days of the class. There are no make-up classes or refunds due to illness, injury, or vacation. To remedy supervision concerns, please do not send children too early for classes and please pick up children on time. For maximum instructional time, spectators must remain in the viewing area (away from classes) while classes are in progress.

PLEASE NOTE: ALL CLASSES SUBJECT TO CANCELLATION IF MINIMUM NUMBERS ARE NOT MET.
