    We signed up for a family acct. One our first visit, we used the pool. The lifeguard informed me…read morethat our children had to take a swim test is they either (1. wanted to swim without an adult/parent in the water with them) or (2. wanted to be allowed to swim outside the arms length of the parent/adult). I was in the water with my 8 & 11 year old children because I feel like it is the responsible thing to do when you take your children to a pool regardless of their swim capabilities. I allow my 11 year to attempt the test for fun. The lifeguard wanted them to swim the length of the pool which my children can do. However, the lifeguard would not pass my child because the swim stroke was not perfect. I have personally been a lifeguard, swim instructor, and swim team coach for over 20 years. My children know their strokes but I have not forced them to be on teams or swim long distance. Do I want them to, yes. But I have not forced it. My children have good strokes for more than half the pool distance but get tired toward the end and get sloppy but are not in danger. The strokes just don't look as nice as they did. Our children visit our neighborhood pool just about everyday in the summer and swim unassisted with no issues. It is winter and perhaps the kids are a little out of practice in the 4-5 months since it has been warm enough to attend the neighborhood pool but again, not in danger and swim fine. But not competitive swimmers. We were told that my daughter did not pass the test even though she could swim unassisted the length of the pool. So we just tried to enjoy our time in the pool and planned to try again another day. However, then the lifeguard reprimanded me multiple times because my 8 and 11 year old swimming children were outside of an arms length of distance from me. Again they swim on their own, and I am in the water with them if they need me. The swim test expectations are too high and I now understand why there were no other families there on a Saturday afternoon. The swim test expectations are too high and the lifeguards to strict on their arms length rule for families to enjoy this pool. Again, I have been a lifeguard, instructor, and swim coach for 20 years so I have a solid base of knowledge with which to make this assertion. I attempted to connect with YMCA on this via email. My email was forwarded to the Aquatics Director and I have not received any response. We are planning to cancel this membership as our children cannot go and enjoy the pool because the rules are too strict and I understand this industry better than most. With rules this strict, the lifeguard is really a waste of money as they basically don't allow children in the pool and only adults may swim. I would still love a response but If I do not get one, we will continue with cancelation. Good luck if you have children and planned to use this pool.

    Our son started Mt. Elizabeth at 9 months and he is now 1.5 and am so sad that we had to take him…read moreout due to us moving away. This school has been THE best school when it comes to attentiveness, warm welcomes, lots of smiles, cameras and app access to your child which makes you feel so much better when you're at work, school, etc. his teachers update you on the brightwheel app on every "potty", "nap", or "incident". Their communication is amazing! His infant teacher (lord, her name slipped my mind) was wonderful and the assistants with her in class. They would make crafts with their feet, toes, hands, fingers - it was heart warming getting to see these firsts from our first baby! And when he graduated to toddler his teacher Ms Katherine and her team in the room were exceptional! No complaints. Over communication on the app, in person as well, the other teachers and assistants when walking to his classroom would say my son's name and welcome him in. I mean, seriously. This is why I'm so sad that he can't attend this school. I would like to add, the Director Samantha and Ms Catherine were sooooo amazing!!! If my son was sick Ms Samantha would calmly speak with me and say that he would have to be picked up because he did not feel well (or whatever the case may be) and her tone, the warmth and her being calm when I would tell her that I worked an hour away would make me feel that my child is safe and in a great environment. Love the staff, the owners, the teachers, the assistants, everyone. Including the parents that were all so kind. Ms Cathie (Director) told me during my first week of dropping my son off that he is great hands and if I had any hesitations to call her. By week 2/3 she saw me and stopped me and said "I am so proud of you", I literally started crying in my car. Being a mom and dropping him off in a place that was new to me, I did not know any of the teachers and then to have her say that to me really made me feel comfortable and at ease. I appreciate everything and I mean EVERYTHING this school has offered to my little family. We will miss everyone, the kids included. On my son's last day his teacher made him a canvas with all of his friends fingerprints including hers. Lordt! I started crying, again! lol. This school is it. Please open more schools throughout Georgia!!!! We need more of this everywhere. LASTLY, ontop of everything I mentioned above, they are Christian. I mean, the most perfect school. Thank you Mt. Elizabeth, we will miss you dearly!

    My daughter attended Mt.Elizabeth Academy for almost two years. We loved this school so much…read more A great place to send your kids! The staff is warm and the children are happy and well taken care of!
