Students will be honored for this achievement at a special ceremony in the fall. The courageous boy who overcame his fears, will be one of the red Savvy String recipients!.
This year, we are moving onto a bigger, brand new campus, with the arena staged as the centerpiece of the school. The future is bright! Our Parelli horses will continue to mentally, emotionally, and physically empower our students.
Even if the students never touch a horse again after they leave our school, they have come away from the experience with a new outlook on life. It is a feeling like no other to have validation from an unbiased creature like the horse. They give you honest feedback! These students didn't give up when it was scary, frustrating, or confusing to them. They touched success.
"I would love to see our school be a model for other schools throughout the country to help youth in this unique way. Love, Language and Leadership are life skills we teach at Our Children's Academy through working with horses and Parelli Natural Horsemanship curriculum in the classroom!"
At the end of the school year, we hold a final exam for our Parelli students. It is a ten minute or less audition video showing the skills of Level 1 On Line (groundwork). The video is sent to Parellì Natural Horsemanship for evaluation. There were 8 students whose videos were sent. We kindly received Parelli scholarships for all the submitted videos. All of them passed!
