At the Flex Academy, we are committed to creating an environment that is both academically challenging and responsive to the social and emotional needs of growing children. Encouraging close relationships among students, teachers, and parents and cooperation between home and school, we foster a feeling of family. The school community strives to nurture each child, valuing his or her unique gifts in an atmosphere of mutual respect.
Our teaching is spirited and promotes active learning. We provide experiences that are sensitive to different learning styles and stages of development. We guide students to discover their strengths and develop confidence in their abilities to learn. Our school is rich and flexible, offering many pathways to success.
We recognize our responsibility to prepare students to meet not just academic challenges, but personal, health, and community ones as well. Our faculty provides leadership for character development, guiding students toward independence. We encourage our students to look beyond themselves, to work cooperatively with others, and to serve their communities and the larger world. We expect much from our students because we believe they have much to give.
As we honor the creativity, sense of wonder, and exuberance in childhood, we hope to stir in our students an enthusiasm for learning as an exciting, lifelong activity. We work to equip each student with a solid mastery of essential skills, healthy self-esteem, and a clear sense of values. At the Flex Academy, we strive to empower young people to reach their highest potential, not only in school but also in life.
