What is a Flex Learning Day? (FLD)
Now with the COVID-19 pandemic, this day refers to a school day where instead of coming to a school, teachers and students communicate online or set up prior learning expectations, and the students continue their learning from home. On an FLD, teachers will share assignments and hold office hours in which they are available to provide learning support to students.
