To keep it safe and fun for everyone…
Our “Rules to Live By” For Parents and Children at Atlanta Swim Academy

Rules are designed to keep people safe and to allow maximum enjoyable participation in our swim programs. If you have any questions about these rules – or don’t understand the reasoning behind any of them, please call us at 770-973-3120. We do expect you to abide by them.

1. No food or drinks are allowed in the pool area or locker rooms. This is a Cobb county regulation.

2. Please do not feed your child a minimum of 1 hour before their swim lesson. Swim lessons are a physical activity and eating before exercising is never recommended.

3. If your child is sick, please do not bring them to swim lessons. A make-up class will be offered with a Doctors note only, on a scheduled basis. Make-ups must be scheduled within 30 days of missed class. There are NO refunds or credits given for ANY reason.

4. We have a 2 student minimum to run a class. Management reserves the right to cancel a class if only one child is registered. In the event you are the only student in a class, we will contact you about other class options.

5. Parents and adults are responsible for the supervision and safety of minor children and their guests.

6. Parents are responsible for getting their children to their classes and instructor. We post daily class rolls in the swim hallway showing what pool and which instructor is teaching your class.

7. Parents are not allowed to interrupt swim classes. If you would like to talk to an instructor, please leave your name and number at the counter, or get one of their business cards and contact them via email. This is necessary to keep all swim classes on schedule.

8. If your child is not potty trained, he/she must wear a swim diaper.

9. We must close the pool immediately in the event of a fecal contamination accident. Length of closure depends on severity of the contamination, but is typically a 6 hour minimum and a 24-hour maximum. Please escort your young child to the bathroom just prior to his or her swim lessons and please help them understand the importance of control. A $300 charge will be applied to any family whose child closes a pool due to bodily waste accidents.

10. No moms in the boy’s locker room, no dads in the girl’s locker room. There is a Family Changing Room and single uni-sex bathrooms located in pool 1.

11. No running, rough-housing, or horseplay anywhere in the building – ever.

12. We have zero tolerance for aggressive behavioral problems during swim lessons. Aggressive behavior towards other swimmers will result in immediate removal from the pool and from that lesson. Continual behavioral problems will result in removal from the swim program.

13. We must shut down the pool during thunderstorm activity. Our rule is: If we hear and see it, we must stop until clear. Our pool is triple grounded for extra safety, but we must still err on the side of caution. We cannot predict the weather, so your cooperation is expected and greatly appreciated.

14. In the case of inclement weather, we follow Cobb County School closings. We will have a message on our phone system regarding the canceled classes.

15. It is our expectation that you will report any unsafe conditions or situations in our facility to us immediately. We are a safe, efficient facility where children enjoy learning to swim. Please help us maintain the highest level of excellence by following our rules. THANK YOU!
