At Oak Crest, our Learn to Swim Program is a cornerstone of the Oak Crest experience. Located in our state-of-the-art aquatic facility in Edison, NJ, our swimming facilities are second to none. Our 3rd Grade Juniors have access to our recently constructed 12,000-square-foot Aquatic Complex, tailored exclusively for 3-8 year-olds. Meanwhile, our 4th grade Juniors swim in our Gigantic Pool, equipped with eight 25-meter lanes. Both facilities offer shallow water for the initial stages of swimming, allowing us to accommodate all swimmers, starting in standing depth and progressing to deeper water as their skills advance.

Each morning, our Juniors participate in a 40-minute swim lesson, led by certified swim instructors, with additional support from group counselors. Our swim lessons are skill-based rather than age-based, ensuring a challenging experience for swimmers of all levels. Our instructors undergo annual training and certification, adhering to American Red Cross standards and drawing from over 25 years of practical experience in teaching children how to swim. In the afternoon, Juniors have the opportunity for free swim in the pools.
