Questions & Answers

There is an Annual Enrollment Fee of $40 for the first student, and all siblings are free. This fee renews annually on the anniversary of your original enrollment and helps cover administrative costs and student secondary insurance.

Our monthly tuition is $129 per student. We offer a sibling discount and multi-class discount at $119/month for each additional student or class. For those enrolled in team practices, tuition is $134/month for Purple Team (45 minutes) and $139/month for Blue Team (1 hour).

Tuition is automatically charged for the following month on the 25th of each month. If you need to withdraw, submit a withdrawal form by the 24th month to avoid being charged. Because we reserve your child’s spot, tuition is based on enrollment, not attendance. We use a flat-rate system based on an average of four classes per month, regardless of whether a particular month has three or five lessons.

At Barron, we believe that a child’s first experience in the water should be more than just a one-time trial. That’s why, instead of offering a free class, we invite new families to experience a whole month of lessons. This gives students the time to adjust, connect with their instructor, and develop fundamental skills. If, after the first month, you’re not completely satisfied, we’ll refund 100% of your tuition and enrollment fee—no questions asked.

We can’t sugar coat it, we do have an extensive waitlist at all locations, and that speaks to the popularity of our program and the high demand for swimming lesson.

Joining our waitlist is entirely free; you can join multiple waitlists simultaneously. Openings happen as students withdraw or change classes, and we contact families in order of waitlist position. You’ll receive a phone call and email notification when a spot opens, and you’ll have 24 hours to respond. In the meantime, we encourage enrolling in an alternate class if available. Once enrolled, your tuition will be prorated to reflect your actual start date.

For the safety of all swimmers, children under three must wear both a disposable swim diaper and a reusable swim diaper, OR two reusable swim diapers. Children over three may stop after being accident-free for at least four months. All diapers must pass the two-finger snugness test. This double-layer protection helps avoid pool closures. Approved diapers are available in our on-site retail shop.

Swimmers should wear well-fitted swimwear: one-piece suits for girls and swim trunks or jammers for boys. Long hair must be tied back or placed in a swim cap. Goggles are optional but may be removed during class for safety skill practice. No jewelry is allowed in the pool. Rash guards and swim shirts are welcome but optional.
