Student Support

Twice-exceptional students can be cognitively and emotionally complicated. Intellectual power is often undermined, but not diminished, by learning challenges. For example, a student who has trouble with math calculations can excel in conceptual math. All of our classes are ability-based rather than age-based, so students are with intellectual peers, with support where necessary.

Some students struggle in a remote learning environment and need extra support to stay focused and manage executive functioning challenges. Our campus-based learning specialists are able to create student-specific accommodations to assist with the transition to remote learning and to help each student successfully navigate the on-line learning environment.

Some FlexSchool students may have suffered from anxiety and depression in former academic settings. Many find that symptoms decrease in a challenging yet supportive academic environment. We are not an appropriate setting for students with behavioral issues that will not resolve in a more adaptable environment.
