Students need an upgraded swim pool
The pool is adjacent to the community college and should be a tremendous asset to the students there. So it was disappointing to find, in a recent survey, that fewer than 10% of pupils use the pool regularly.
Over 80% of the students expressed an interest in having swimming as part of their physical education classes and 40% expressed an interest in doing lifesaving classes.
