What is the maximum number of substitute instructors allowed per month?

The maximum number of substitute instructors allowed per month is set at one. This limit helps ensure consistency in instruction and maintains a stable learning environment for students. Frequent changes in instructors can disrupt lesson plans and affect students’ comfort and progress in the water. Allowing only one substitute ensures that while instructors may occasionally need to take time off or be unavailable, the overall framework of teaching remains intact. This policy also serves to ensure that all instructors are well-acquainted with the curriculum and methods used, which benefits student learning and retention of skills.
