FlexSchool creates safe spaces where gifted and twice-exceptional (2e) learners can explore their passions, embrace their challenges, and find a community of teachers and friends who understand and accept them as they are.
Why Families Love FlexSchool
Strengths-Focused
Approach
We focus first on the areas where your child shines, so they can gain the confidence to take risks and accept support for their challenges.
A Community of
Intellectual Peers
As they engage in high-level discourse in small-group classes of gifted and 2e peers, our students feel an immediate kinship that lays the groundwork for lasting friendships.
360-Degree
Student Support
Your child will automatically receive differentiated instruction, executive functioning support, social-emotional learning, and on-demand counseling — no appointment needed!
Experiential Learning
& Talent Development
We foster creative exploration and essential real-world connections through immersive experiences, such as field trips, guest speakers, enrichment clusters, and more!
“This is a breath of fresh air vs. my child’s previous school that wanted to hold him back to work on his deficits, which never worked. At FlexSchool, my child is encouraged to try out advanced classes, which has helped him to emotionally regulate and feel more confident about himself. ”

OUR STUDENT COMMUNITY
“Our child finally feels he is with his people. I know FlexSchool is very careful to keep the school populated with a beautiful balance of appropriate peers. That is so important. They all understand each other. Empathy!”

OUR SUPPORTIVE TEAM

All families from all campuses are invited to attend Rutgers Day—a gigantic annual all-day multi-campus outdoor festival—on Saturday, April 26. Christopher Manente, Ph.D., executive director of the Rutgers Center for Adult Autism Services, has generously offered FlexSchool exclusive access to his community center as a staging point to explore all that Rutgers Day has to offer. Gather for breakfast (tentatively scheduled between 9–10 a.m.). To secure the community center for our school, we need to give Dr. Manente an approximate headcount, so if you are interested in attending, please fill out the R.S.V.P. form as soon as possible.
