ATTENDANCE POLICY

In order for the lesson schedule to work efficiently, the following attendance policy must be followed:

  • A parent or legal guardian must be present during the participant’s lesson at all times.
  • Please plan to arrive at least 5 minutes before class time.
  • It is the responsibility of the participant/caregiver to notify the instructor prior to the day of the lesson if they will be absent.  Our volunteers commit their time to lessons; our goal is to be respectful of their schedules and notify them at least 24 hrs in advance to changes in the schedule.
  • Our team of volunteers will wait 15 minutes in case a participant arrives late for the lesson.  If arrival is later than 15 minutes, the lesson will be considered cancelled; no make up will be provided.
  • If a lesson must be cancelled by Purple Pony, you will be notified at minimum one hour ahead of class time. A make up lesson will be arranged.

Weather Cancellations:  Purple Pony has access to an indoor riding arena.  Lessons will be held rain or shine, unless cancelled by Purple Pony. If Purple Pony must cancel a lesson, a makeup lesson will be arranged. There are no refunds or makeups for any other absences.
