Managing a districtwide visual arts program is no small feat. You’re balancing hiring, coaching, curriculum, and PD—often without art-specific tools or enough time to do it all.
That’s where FLEX and PRO come in: time-saving resources built to support your team and lighten your load.
As a fine arts leader, you’ve likely asked yourself:
FLEX + PRO were built to take that pressure off your shoulders.
FLEX has been a game changer for my art teachers. The wealth of resources is better than anything I’ve ever seen.
With FLEX, the lesson format and materials have made it super easy to refresh our curriculum, which keeps art teachers engaged. If art teachers are bored, students are bored.
FLEX helps our new art teachers create engaging, standards-based art lessons. The step-by-step procedure teaches them how to structure a lesson they design properly.
“The big difference with the FLEX Curriculum is the quality of the lessons. Our district is very studio based. It’s all about projects and hands-on learning. It’s doing, creating, making—it’s a very artistic mindset type of learning. These FLEX lessons really lend themselves to what we’re trying to do, and we feel that it really helps our new art teachers.”
PRO Packs have been incredibly helpful in helping teachers feel supported. Veteran teachers and new teachers are able to pick and pull what they want or use all of it. Sometimes, I’m unable to have a 20–30 minute discussion with them. I can direct them to this resource.
Our first year kicked off with a virtual welcome session. Teachers were eager to explore and use the new platform. Since then, we’ve partnered with AOEU to tackle challenges based on real-time feedback from our educators.
I am highly impressed by the quality of the content and clarity of design. I use the [FLEX] resources that align with the content I am teaching. Another aspect that I appreciate is that the branding is cohesive, well-designed, and clear.
I love all of the various and varied lesson ideas/plans in FLEX Curriculum. You can build your unit with not only a detailed lesson plan but incorporate videos, resources, assessments with a quick search
