Our 4th graders will participate in 7 days of swimming instruction as part of the LCISD PE curriculum, beginning March 17.

Girls are required to wear a one-piece swimsuit and those individuals with long hair must wear their hair up. No t-shirts, or cut-offs are allowed - swimsuits only. No electronics, jewelry, sprays, lotions, or gels are allowed. Please contact your child's teacher with any questions.
