Swim Assessment (ages 12 and under)The MJCC Aquatics department is dedicated to teaching children to swim and stay safe in our pools. We have an outstanding aquatic facility that allows kids to enjoy the water safely under the close supervision of certified lifeguards. We require a swim assessment from each child under the age of 13. The swim assessment consists of swimming the length of the pool with arm strokes, climbing out, jumping back in and swimming backstroke the length of the pool. Please contact our Aquatics department for any questions regarding swim assessments.
