Terrible experience with Legacy Traditional. Almost anywhere else would be better for your child’s academic development. They’ve lost my Kindergartener on her way out. How’sa “pm Kindergartener” considered tardy at 9 am? They send them out to play “extra recess” til 11 when they are supposed to actually start instead of being in class as an all day kinder. Staff will not let you pick up unless you have physical ID, even when they know who you are and you drop them off daily. The kinder teacher complained by email several times that she doesn’t have time/want to expend much effort to work one on one with students if they are struggling. They use a special phonics program called Spalding, but they don’t explain to parents how to make the sounds and they do not supply the official cards or access to the app for home use. Parents can choose to purchase the app. They blocked off more than 1/2 of the parking lot with cones and barriers so you have to park really far away to walk to the office or the pickup gate. This whole school year I’ve never seen a single security guard on the campus. They have some exterior locking doors, but the front office desk is big, long, and completely unprotected; someone could literally climb right over and go multiple ways through open doors into the interior areas. They disregard parent wishes for child to eat home lunch only and allow them to get a school lunch then charge a fee for the lunch. They will not remove lunch fees for a kindergartner who was furnished a school lunch without parents permission. If child struggles, they take months to agree with parents to test for diagnosis even when siblings showed the same signs and had established Dx and 504 in place. Parents do not have access to check lost and found-we’ve lost several jackets, 6 or 7 lunch boxes/bags, multiple water bottles and 2 backpacks-none have been returned as they expect students to claim their items. They have zero couth and regularly refuse respecting boundaries between multiple household students. Information communication is heavily weighted in favor of one parent’s household vs the other parent. They do not have to inform you if the other parent made any changes to your child’s information, such as pickup list or changing the address on file. They will not allow separate parents households a separated login-just one login for one student. Not worth the hassle or anguish this horrible school will cause. Look elsewhere for your child’s education.

We absolutely love Legacy! Our daughter is learning so much with the help and guidance of these teachers. Her state scores were well above average and it had us so proud of her. The staff has always been supportive no matter what the topic is. They have an after care program that helps her complete her homework, there are many clubs she can participate in throughout the year, they taught her the pledge of allegiance and cursive, and she has built positive relationships with her peers. We cannot say enough good things about Legacy.
