Our Core Values
Behind the Business: Pioneering a New Kind of Franchise Swim School
As a life-long swimmer that achieved national prominence, Jenny McCuiston realized the need for quality swim lessons focused solely on children in a family-friendly environment. She and her husband, Chris, traveled the country and thoroughly researched the learn-to-swim industry before starting a business that would grow to benefit communities throughout North America.
At Goldfish Swim School, we recognize the need for quality, safer swim instruction in communities across the United States. Our proprietary curriculum combines water safety, swim instruction and FUN to build confident swimmers. This combination translates to success for our franchisees and for Goldfish families.

A Successful Franchise Business Built on an Essential Life Skill.
Sadly, according to the CDC, drowning is the leading cause of death for children ages 1–4. Swim lessons don’t just build confidence—they save lives. Children who receive formal swim instruction are up to 88% less likely to drown, making Goldfish Swim School a powerful, purpose-driven concept with true staying power. Swimming is a critical life skill every child needs for safety and lifelong enjoyment in and around the water. As a Goldfish Swim School owner, you can play a direct role in protecting kids in your community through our in-school curriculum and our exclusive W.A.T.E.R. Safety Education Program, which we proudly provide FREE to local families and organizations.
