Testimonials
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.
“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.”
