We use the HorseSense Learning Levels curriculum, where all of the skills we want you to know are broken down into a checklist of objectives.
‍
Objectives are progressive, which means that some concepts and skills may be introduced in a lower level and then expanded with more detail in a later level.

Each “checkmark” we give students as they work through Red Level (level 1) creates a little steppingstone to more in-depth knowledge or advanced skills in the next levels.

When students have demonstrated all of the knowledge and skills required for a level, we commemorate that accomplishment with a ribbon!
