MVMS FLEX Time

 

Flex Time provides an opportunity for students who need extra time during the school day to meet with teachers and make up work. Flex time is held Monday-Friday for 30 minutes. All students who have F's, will meet with those teachers on that subject's priority day. Every day after 2nd period all students recieve a progress report informing them of their current grades. Based upon a student's grades, they either meet with a teacher for remedition or attend an activity. Students that have passing grades are rewarded by attending an activity of their choice or they can attend classess to stay caught up with their work. Sometimes even if students are passing, they may be assigned to a FLEX session if teachers determine they need help mastering a concept.
