"FLEX had me talk to the Board of Education and was one of the most intresting and fun days I've ever had if I wasn't apart of Flex I wouldn't have had that chance."

"Experiences I enjoyed in FLEX were being able to be with the same people every morning and it gave me an opportunity to make new friends."

"FLEX gave me bigger opportunities that I get to take advantage of during my senior year. Because of FLEX I didn't have to go through the stress of taking extra electives and core classes. Taking FLEX my freshman year enabled the option of graduating after first semester, but I'm choosing to continue the rest of my senior year doing dual enrollment for early college."

"I enjoyed how interactive some assignments can get!"

"One of my favorite experience in FLEX was the trip to the Arch where we had a fun time with a lot of walking and also learned a fair amount of St. Louis history."

"I enjoyed FLEX for the freedom you get as a student of the program. It was said in the beginning but it never hit me until very late into the program, but just asking to go to another FLEX class and go there to work is an extreme stress reliever."

"Flex has prepared me for my future in engineering by teaching me that once a project is completed go back and revise it and make it better than it was because nothing can be perfect but we try to get close perfect."

"A project I really enjoyed in FLEX was the National History Day projects, I researched and wrote a 20 page essay about Artistic Activism and the Fight for Equality. It was a great learning experience that prepared me for future research projects as well as essay preparation. FLEX also helped me learn very valuable skills such as, team work which is needed in the medical field, including public speaking, and how to find valuable and credible sources."

"The interdisciplinary aspects of FLEX allowed me to apply what I learned to other subjects in ways I never thought possible. It enabled me to understand important concepts on a deeper level, and that has carried with me throughout my high school career."

"FLEX helped me prepare for my future because I was able to pick more fun classes and not having to worry about the things that are required to graduate."

"The flexible program empowered me to prepare for the future by giving me the freedom to learn at my own pace, while hands-on projects like budgeting and collaborative work taught me practical skills and adaptability that I’ll carry with me wherever I go."

"FLEX enabled me to truely find a passion for learning. The issue I have with points based learning is that it can take the fun out of the actual process of learning. The compedency based system used in Flex allivates the stress and harmful mindset of doing work just to get good grades."

"In FLEX, you are able to take field trips to local spots that are seamlessly encorporated into cross-curlicular projects. This is an aspect of FLEX that allows learning to be fun and not just a tedious task."

"FLEX also allows you to earn an extra credit every year you are in it. Taking FLEX both of my 9th and 10th grade years is going to allow me to do more of what I want to do during my senior year."

"FLEX has helped me expand my horizons by giving me the opportunity to think more critically and ethically about world issues and current day events."

"FLEX helped me understand how projects can work across mutiple subjects."

"FLEX is a really cool program and has only grown since I was in it. The teachers are super flexible, pretty on brand, and want you to learn in the best way for you. One of the coolest things about FLEX is the extra credit you can receive as your schedule is over loaded, and it can put you ahead in credits." "Yay FLEX!!"

"I enjoyed FLEX because it taught me time management and I was able to get my credits done early with the extra two classes i got to have."

"I really enjoyed how I was always with my friends, and how we had projects that connected to multiple different subjects."
