"You're in school for 13 years, something like seven hours per day. Seems to me they have time to teach you to read and teach you to swim."
Perhaps "they" can't swim either.
Swimming has been a huge part of my life and I encourage participation, however, it isn't the duty of a school system to teach children how to swim.
The focus these days is on test scores. We wouldn't want anyone to be left behind.
