POLICIES

Children and Families Class Make-up Policy
Make-up classes vary by program and are based on availability. At the beginning of each semester, you will receive a letter from the program director outlining the make-up policy for the class and instructions for scheduling. Swim class make-up policies are outlined below. Make-up classes are subject to availability and must be redeemed before the end of the class semester.

Swim Make-up Policy
We are happy to offer one swim make-up class per session to each swimmer. Make-up classes are based on available space. Thank you for understanding that we cannot accommodate exceptions due to the volume of JCC swim program participants and the class capacity/health and safety standards we maintain. To explore make-up class options, please contact swimmakeup@mmjccm.org.
