Voters Opinions:

"School's should provide swim classes for those who want to learn how to swim but making it a graduation requirement is is unfair."

-- (Declined to have name placed with opinion)

"If Lowell students are going to have this requirement thrust on them, the entire SFUSD should require it!  I'm certain that Burton is not required to pass any swim test and I'm sure that other schools are also lax."
