Swimming

Diving In

Swimming is a foundational piece—and a highlight—of every Horizons program. Most Horizons students start the program not knowing how to swim and fearful of the water. With swim lessons three times each week in Westminster’s pool, students not only conquer their fears and learn a life-saving skill, but they also build resilience and confidence that spills over into the classroom.


Benefits of learning to swim:
​

  • Transforms a feared challenge into a favorite activity
  • Encourages attention to detail and commitment to a goal
  • Teaches resilience as students overcome obstacles and fears
  • Inspires a healthy lifestyle
  • Introduces a competitive sport 
  • Builds skills for summer employment
