Swimming Program


Celebrate the Children has partnered with the West Morris Area YMCA, located in Randolph, NJ, and implemented an open swim program. Students enjoy frequent field trips to the pool, typically once per month.  There are many benefits of aquatic exercise for individuals with physical, sensory and developmental challenges, taking advantage of both the buoyance and the hydrostatic pressure offered by a pool environment.  The program takes place in a warm water pool, which enhances the psychological benefits including decreased pain, increased range of motion, decreased sensitivity of sensory nerve endings, and increased joint range of motion. 

Students travel by bus to the YMCA, which is in close proximity to the school. Two groups of students rotate during the one-hour session of swim time, allowing the students to swim for 30 minutes.  A certified lifeguard is always on duty at the pool, and there is always a 1:1 ratio of staff with students in the water.  This program incorporates NJCCCS Life Skills 9.1.
