Welcome to the new Parkway-Rockwood Community Ed! After more than two years of planning, the Community Ed partnership between the two districts officially began on July 1. In addition to continuing to offer our most popular programs, residents can look forward to new and expanded programs and services this fall. We’ve also made several enhancements to the way you can learn about and register for programs, including:
• Redesigned program guide – An improved layout featuring youth, adult and family programs.
• New website – The all new Community Ed website, www.prcommunityed.org, features improved navigation to make finding information easier and faster.
• Online registration – Parkway residents now have access to the same online registration system for Community Ed programs as Rockwood residents. Online registration is the most convenient way to register at any time, day or night.
We look forward to Parkway-Rockwood Community Ed building upon the proud history of Community Ed in both districts. We thank you for your ongoing support of our programs and we look forward to seeing you this fall!
Sincerely, Community Ed Staff

The Parkway Swim Club has a storied tradition that extends over a span of 40 years and includes Hall of Fame coaches and Olympic athletes. We at PKWY strive to provide
swimmers of all ages, through training and guidance, the opportunity to develop the skills necessary to formulate and attain their goals. PKWY is committed to establishing a supportive environment for swimmers of all levels of ability. Each swimmer is an important team member and will be provided with the opportunity to develop self-confidence, discipline and many other skills that will be useful for the rest of their lives both in and out of the pool.
We train and compete in an atmosphere of fun, friendship and team spirit while further building Parkway Swim Club’s tradition of excellence. With over 100 years of combined coaching experience, the PKWY coaching staff prides itself on creating the most exciting, inspiring and fun place for swimmers to grow and develop. Our motto “We Do Big Things” is a testament to our goal to reach our full promise as a team through the collective success of our individuals.
Community Ed offers two competitive swim programs. Both programs are open to all residents of the Parkway and Rockwood School Districts.
Athlete development: Parkway Swim Club uses a “progressive” program designed to develop the child physically, mentally and emotionally in a systematic fashion and over a long period of time. A well-defined, long term approach of gradually increasing levels of commitment has been proven to be essential to long-term development in the sport of swimming. The emphasis in the early stages of participation is placed on developing technical skills and a love for the sport. In the later years, a more demanding physical and psychological challenge is introduced to the training program.
Group Placement: Group placement is determined by a swimmer’s age, ability level, commitment level and personal goals. Group placement is at the discretion of the Parkway Swim Club professional coaching staff and is determined following a team tryout.
Team Tryouts: All prospective members must complete a team tryout to allow for appropriate group placement. Please visit our website at www.pkwy.org or call 314-415-4900 for more information. Visit www.pkwy.org or call

Facility usage
Rockwood believes schools and buildings should be made available for community use when it does not conflict with the District's primary purpose of educating students. Many indoor and outdoor facilities are available for use by the public outside of school hours and on weekends (some restrictions apply).
Visit the Rockwood Facility Usage website at www.rockwood.k12.mo.us/facilityusage to learn how to request use of Rockwood facilities. For more information, contact 636-733-2167 or [email protected].
Parkway Schools welcomes the use of its buildings and grounds by community organizations. Applications will be approved on a first-come, first-served basis and school-sponsored activities will have priority over non-school activities. Usage fees to offset costs may apply, depending upon the type of event or activity.

A charge of $25 for any returned payment will be assessed. A $5 processing fee will be charged for all refunds for programs with a registration fee up to $100. An additional $5 will be added per each additional $100 increment of registration fee.
