when you become a student at flextech various reason I came from a bigger school and I felt like I had no place there was not a good year for me and I think I see would have continued to be just as horrendous if it wasn't for the fact that I came here community because they all have different strengths that we meet kids where they're at based on that as an individual what tech is a 21st century school with campuses in Brighton Farmington Hills and Shepherd Michigan check with each student in family to create a more flexible schedule that works best for them they are training for the Olympics my stuff is based on line so we can do it from places other than the school and here has their own computer and they can utilize R11 technology with Google Classroom to interact with their teachers to complete their assignments and also check on their status within a class is just a lot more technology-based which is sort of the way I feel like our what's the temperature at work and we support our students and personalizing their learning voice and choice within all the project I always tell students I have an idea for a project but if you have different that would still accomplish with learning goals I'm open to your idea of wood burning or making things and their Mastery through project rather than the big pasture because that's not how the real world works the real world is about applying things that you've learned to do something bigger the culinary arts program is three unique listen to cancel draw their own herbs and vegetables what would you do with all this vegetable now that's when the fun begins to start talking back to you start talking about dips and hors d'oeuvres and appetizers and my youth entrepreneur S-Class we're supposed to create a business what's in this old building right in town and then Shark Tank style they were given the opportunity to present their business to a panel of Judges it was really cool experience and something I've always been passionate about it's an awesome feeling to see building their own businesses and bring those products or services to the life physical manifestation of the idea and that create pride in what we do here one of the core pieces of flextech is our advisory program High School career catch up on missing work and make a game plan for how you can be successful and our advisors leave circles in their classic where students can share about their lives and support each other through High School remind on what they think about it that we use an advisory called project wayfinder help her students to discover their passion identify their skills and use those to establish their purpose in life and they're excited about it I had a senior he was really worried that he wasn't going to graduate on time but she was able to get the help he needed from teachers you really doubled up on a lot of credit and seeing him walk across the stage and shaking hand at the end was just like such a great moment I feel like they're ready stay ready to jump to the world that do whatever they want to do I'm up working if I feel I've been changed honestly this year and the year before have been the best years of my life it helps them to get back to who they really are and to develop those passion so it's really giving meaning to their learning it just sort of feels like home
