“The academic rigor of FlexSchool had prepared me for college, and I didn’t really ever feel overwhelmed…In general, I just felt prepared. I gained confidence at FlexSchool, being in a small environment, being comfortable speaking up. So even in my larger [college] classes, I find a way to make it feel as tight-knit as FlexSchool.”

“I feel like I've been very well prepared for the world. I've gotten exposure to a lot of different things that were struggles for me at first, and FlexSchool helped me work through those things and build up my executive functioning skills, build up a lot of these skills that I didn't have before. And now I feel ready to go out into the world…I feel very strongly that that FlexSchool has definitely prepared me for that.”

“The close relationships with teachers at FlexSchool made me more comfortable with just going up to [professors] or going to office hours…and it helps a lot! Prior to FlexSchool, I was obviously in a bigger public school environment, and there was less interaction with teachers…To be able to get used to what a relationship is like with a teacher you know that's slightly more personal is like a warm-up for getting to know a college professor.”

“The best part about college for me has been knowing that my time at high school and my time at FlexSchool preparing for something has paid off. And those skills that I’ve acquired over the course of that time—especially at FlexSchool—were of help in succeeding in college, and tackling obstacles that came in front of me in college. I would say that’s the best part, kind of feeling accomplished.”

“I was probably one of the most prepared freshmen, honestly…The whole academic idea of FlexSchool just being very independent and self-guided and flexible for the individual, that really helped me get that good mindset about it and be prepared for that going into college. It was a good stepping-stone, where I feel like public school wouldn’t have had that at all. So that was probably one of the best parts of going to FlexSchool and then to college.”

"I was surprised with how comfortable I was in the [college] classrooms. Before FlexSchool. I was at a public school where there were about 25 people in the classrooms and I never really spoke up, but at FlexSchool I was kind of forced to speak up because of the small environment, and definitely felt more comfortable. And that feeling of comfort in the classroom has continued into college because FlexSchool helped me get confident talking in class.”
