Summary

FlexTech High School is a small public charter high school in Brighton, MI, serving 171 students in grades 9-12 as its own single-school district. The school has received a 1-star rating for the 2025-2026 school year, down from 2 stars in prior years, and its state ranking has dropped from the 44th percentile in 2022-2023 to the 21st percentile—a significant decline that parents should be aware of when considering this option.

The most pressing concern for families is the graduation rate, which sits at 67.2%—nearly 17 points below the state average of 84.0%. This is dramatically lower than nearby traditional public schools like Brighton High School (98.6%) and Hartland High School (97.7%). Academic proficiency is also well below state averages; for example, only 17.9% of 11th graders were proficient in SAT Evidence-Based Reading and Writing compared to the state's 52.1%. Chronic absenteeism is another red flag at 41.8%, more than double the rate at nearby high-performing schools. The school serves a population with significant economic need—57.89% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch—which is much higher than surrounding districts like Brighton Area Schools (9.06%).

Despite its "flex" model, FlexTech's outcomes align more closely with alternative schools in the area, yet it lacks the success of similar programs. For instance, Innovation Academy boasts a 97.7% graduation rate, and Charyl Stockwell Academy High School, located less than a mile away, achieves a 92.5% graduation rate with test scores near state averages—showing that charter schools can succeed with the right supports. One bright spot is 9th-grade English Language Arts proficiency at 47.4%, closer to the state average, but this advantage doesn't carry through to 11th grade. With per-student spending of $12,562—higher than some better-performing alternatives—funding isn't the primary issue. Parents should carefully weigh these challenges, particularly the declining trajectory and high absenteeism, when considering FlexTech for their child.

This has been an excellent high school for students who need a smaller school environment and don't do well with "traditional cookie cutter" schools. I highly recommend Flex-tech Brighton -- for so much more than just the "standard test scores". This school does work with students of all learning levels from the gifted to the challenged. Test scores are NOT an accurate assessment of how wonderful this school, and it's staff, truly are. Close Quote
