Syllabus
**The course offered does not include a riding component. The course covered by the Partnership is lecture/stable time only. The riding component may be purchased for $10 by contacting Bittersweet directly. Please pay on the first day of class.** Optional riding component would include walk only for beginners.
*Please note: it is important to make as informed a decision as possible when choosing your student's Community Resource classes. Most locations will allow a student to drop a class after one meeting, at no charge if it wasn't a good fit for the student, but not all. Some classes plan ahead based on the number that have signed up and have purchased materials, hired teachers, etc. and there might be a fee for class time or materials given to the student if the student drops after one or two meetings. The school cannot pay for classes that students do not complete, so choose wisely; if you do not take the class off of your student's schedule by the deadline, you may be asked to pay for the class time incurred prior to dropping the class.
