They actually asked this question from him in an interview and he responded by saying he was a really bad student and didn't want to do his work. That is why he was kicked out of school. He got actually kicked out of high school *three* times!!

He was a "really bad high school student."

"I was registered in high school, but I didn't do any work. And sometimes, I wasn't even there. Actually, a lot of times I wasn't there," he said. "We used to have this rule, my friends and I … if it was too crowded to get on the first subway, we went to breakfast. And maybe that was the beginning of my food career, a Greek diner in New York."

After getting thrown out of three high schools, Flay earned an equivalency diploma.

Read the entire article. It is interesting.

And here is another interview with him:

You were suspended from high school. Why?

You have to tell me which high school you're talking about, because I either dropped out or got thrown out of a couple of them. I was not a good high school student. I'm actually a graduate of the City of New York, because I got my high school equivalency diploma. I just had no interest in doing schoolwork, period. There was no magic to it. It just wasn't the way I wanted to learn.
