At FlexTech, we pride ourselves on offering a variety of learning experiences for students, all of which lead to meeting the standards of the Michigan Merit Curriculum. We are committed to breaking down the walls that make school seem like a place that students don’t belong or can’t succeed. We transform it into a place where students are always engaged and can find academic, personal and social success in high school and beyond.
