Washington, DC (March 10, 2014) – Flex Academies, a leading provider of afterschool enrichment activities, is hosting a first-of-its-kind virtual open house that will present the best practices for managing a successful afterschool program.

Presenters at the conference will be Joshua Chernikoff, Founder and CEO of Flex Academies, and Bowden Skoff, Afterschool Activities Coordinator at Pyle Middle School, the largest middle school in Montgomery County. The Pyle Panther Afterschool program is backed by the school's parents and principal, is very rich in tradition, and offers more than 20-25 programs each week.
