Pool Rules & Information
Dive into swimming with the JCC of Central NJ. Our outstanding Aquatics Program offers a full menu of instructional and recreational programs for infants to active seniors. Gain confidence and skill with our competitive Barracudas Swim Team for kids in kindergarten through high school. You can also use your leadership skills and show your love for aquatics by enrolling in one of the American Red Cross certification programs to join our knowledgeable and caring staff. Build strength and endurance with regular workouts in our six lap lanes, or test the water with an American Red Cross Learn-to-Swim class. Classes meet once a week during the session. Please see swimmer’s age group for course schedules, descriptions, and fees.
Makeup Classes
The JCC maintains small instructor-student ratios. Class meeting times are based on enrollment and skill level. Classes missed by the participant may be made up at the discretion of the Aquatics Director. (There is no guarantee that a makeup will be available.) Every effort will be made to accommodate the need.
Choosing the Right Swim Class/Level
If you are unsure of a child's level, you can bring your swimmer in to be tested. This will ensure that your child will be in the right class. It only takes a few minutes for an instructor to evaluate a swimmer's level. Call the Aquatics office for more information or to schedule an appointment to start your swimmer off with the right stroke this session.
Parents/Caregivers are welcome to stay in the pool area on the first day of class to help your swimmer feel more secure and then again on the last day of lessons to see their progress. During the intervening weeks, parents/caregivers can wait in the pool area the first 5 minutes of class then return for the last 5 minutes. This will allow your swimmer to focus on the lesson that the instructor has planned.
Children are not to be left unattended in the locker rooms. Parents/Caregivers must accompany children into the locker room to assist with dressing. Children over the age of 3 with opposite gender parent must change in private changing room. . Lockers are emptied at the end of each day.
