Mr. Gutierrez is our optional Flex School Day Program Teacher, this program is designed to provide students with a more adaptable schedule that supports their individual needs. This program allows eligible students to have flexible arrival or dismissal times while still meeting academic requirements.
The goal of the program is to give students more autonomy and balance while ensuring they continue to stay on track academically. It’s a privilege that encourages responsibility, time management, and continued engagement in their education.
Great job Mr. Gutierrez and thank you for all that you do.
