LANCASTER, Los Angeles County — October 26, 2026. The City of Lancaster’s aquatics division lists Monday, October 26 at 8 a.m. as the opening of registration for its third fall swimming-lesson session. Families and adults can check class availability for November and choose a program appropriate for their age and swimming skills.

What the city is offering

Lancaster advertises American Red Cross swimming programs for ages six months through adulthood. The city’s fall schedule lists November classes beginning November 2 for Monday/Wednesday sessions, November 3 for Tuesday/Thursday sessions and November 7 for Saturday sessions, depending on the program. Actual course availability and start dates vary by level.

How much are the lessons?

The posted city fee chart lists group lessons at $47 for residents and $56 for nonresidents. Private lesson fees are listed at $160 for residents and $181 for nonresidents. The chart describes sessions comprising four 30-minute lessons, although students should confirm the exact schedule for their selected course before paying.

Registration steps and what to confirm

Parents and adult participants should review the city’s class placement guidance, then use the official Aquatics page and the Enroll Now system, searching for “swim.” Because registration began earlier today, open slots are not guaranteed. The city’s published rules say schedules may change, pools close on federal holidays, and refunds are not offered once a session has begun.

Learning to swim is an important safety skill, but enrollment does not guarantee a certificate or a particular swimming ability after one short course. Parents should follow supervision rules at pools and other waterways.
