First Lesson Report Card Procedure

⚠️REPORT CARD PROCEDURE REMINDER⚠️

You will not collect past physical report cards from your students. Once a student has established a digital report card with us, you can consult the Coach Portal to see their level.

If a parent brings in a physical report card, do not keep it - it should go home with the parent.

When no digital Swim Fins report card exists, please assess them using our assessment, and place them in the corresponding Swim Fins level. See the Swim Fins Curriculum for details.

We are looking for success, we always want every kid to pass through a level on their first session.

For example: If you assess a child at Swim Level 9, but then you realize oops, they can’t do Eggbeater on back (5m), instead of not passing them through Swim Level 9, drop them down to Swim Level 8 for their report card, provided they can do Eggbeater on back (2m). If not, then drop them down to Swim Level 7, provided they can do Eggbeater on back with belt (2m), etc. Keep dropping them down until they reach a level that they can pass everything, then pass them through that for the session.

Make sure to customize your lesson plans so that you focus on the skills they can’t do, and maintain the skills they can do.
