Swimming

Welcome to the middle school swimming program in the Savannah-Chatham County Public School System. Most schools will practice together at the Chatham County Aquatic Center on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday from 6:30pm-7:30pm. Swimming provides the opportunity to learn social skills, self-discipline, sportsmanship, and teamwork. The middle school swimming will serve sixth, seventh, and eighth grade students that are eligible and capable of making the swim team. The opportunity to participate is extended to students who are willing to assume the responsibilities and meet eligibility requirements.  Click here for link to the flyer with this information.
