OUR VALUES

OUR cLASSES

Rockin’

Roxy’s Preschool

OUR PHILOSOPHY

• A relationship exists between instructor, behaviors and student performance.

• Students learn in different ways and have different readiness levels.

• The focus should be on ability, not disability: achievement, not errors.

• Multiple methods of instruction, including “learn by doing” results in higher levels of student performance.

• Effective instructional methods can be learned and developed.

Dipper’s Level 2

Swimmers at this level are very comfortable in the water. This class is skill development for beginners. Swimmers will learn how to float on their front and back unassisted, glide, kick, jump off, and return to the wall. Participants will begin to add flutter kick to their freestyle and backstroke arm motions. Students will also be able to streamline unassisted.

Dipper’s Level 3

Swimmers will work on freestyle with side breathing and backstroke. Flip turns will be introduced in this level. Swimmers will be able to swim 10 yards without stopping in both backstroke and freestyle.

Dipper’s Level 4

Swimmers should already be able to swim freestyle and backstroke 25 yards. Focus will be on incorporating side breathing and flip turns into freestyle and backstroke. Diving and breaststroke kick will be introduced at this level; to move to Level 5, swimmers should be able to kick 25 yards of breaststroke without stopping.

Dipper’s Level 5

Breaststroke arms will be introduced and will incorporate legs in this level. Introduction of diving off the starting blocks and butterfly kicks. Swimmers should be able to complete 25 yards of breaststroke to move up to Level 6.

Dipper’s Level 6

Level 6 focus is endurance with backstroke, breaststroke and freestyle. Swimmers should be able to swim 50 yards of breast stroke, 100 yards of backstroke, and freestyle with turns. Butterfly arms will be introduced and swimmers will incorporate legs when participants are ready.

Adult Group Lessons

Adult group lessons (swimmers age 15+) are designed for beginner level swimmers and will also cater to those who have some experience in the water and want to freshen up their skills. Swimmers start with learning the basic safety skills (breath control through the mouth and nose, front and back float, as well as the beginning arm and kicking movements for freestyle) and progress to independent freestyle and develop backstroke technique.

What our parEntS arE Saying…

“I just want to say thank you to the team and teachers at Elk Grove Park District Preschool. I transferred my daughter in the middle of the year because she was not adapting. Once she started at EGVPD, she enjoyed school and was excited to go. I am so glad we made the switch!”

“Our baby daughter Alexiana P. was loved and adored by the best preschool that has ever existed. How can we ever say thank you to the care that the Al Hattendorf preschool staff showed to our baby this impossible school year. Her teachers provided excellent care and guidance for my 3 year old. Alexiana learned more from them than her 6 year old sister ever has.”

“I would like to thank the whole staff at the Hattendorf preschool for giving my daughter the best year. She always felt safe and welcome and learned more then we could ever teach her. I would like to thank her teachers. They were wonderful and we will miss them this summer. Please let them know how much they are appreciated.”

The Elk Grove Parks Foundation is a 501(c) (3) charitable organization created to support parks and recreation activities within Elk Grove Village. The Foundation provides funding to programs and activities not typically supported by property taxes. Parks and recreation is an important asset to the community. It is well documented that communities with an excellent park district have lower adolescent crime rates and increased property values. Individuals and corporations are invited to support the Foundation through monetary donations or in-kind gifts. Your donation of any amount is gladly accepted at our customer services desks at the Pavilion & Hattendorf Center. You can mail your check to: Elk Grove Parks Foundation, 499 Biesterfield Road, Elk Grove Village, IL 60007. Please contact Kelly Carbon at 847.228.3548 for more information.

The park district you pay taxes to will be listed. If you reside in Elk Grove Village, but do not pay taxes to the Elk Grove Park District, you are eligible for the Non-Resident Household Membership. (See definition below) District residents will have priority registration as the dates of registration are listed in the seasonal brochures. Resident and non-resident fees are listed with the program information. When establishing a new household account with the Elk Grove Park District, and including an online account, each resident is required to prove residency in person. This is a matter of data verification to make sure we have the most updated information in our new system. Once completed, we will activate the online portion.

Please bring one of the following items for each household member with you to set up your account:

Adults (Over 18) Dependent

under 26
