Description
Legacy’s junior high program is built on the same values parents hold dear—offering a safe, caring environment where students can learn, grow, and achieve their best. We believe education should be well-rounded, focusing not only on academics but also on character and personal development. Rather than centering solely on test scores, our approach aims to foster complete students who are prepared for all areas of life. When students feel supported and engaged, scores improve naturally, talents emerge, and strong character takes shape. Our curriculum includes enVision Math for deep conceptual learning with visual models and personalized lessons, and the Spalding Language Arts program, which hones skills in spelling, writing, reading, and handwriting through both group and individualized instruction. Physical health and confidence are promoted through the Momentum Fitness Program, providing 45 minutes of exercise four days a week, while the Mozart Performing Arts Program allows students to explore music and performance. The Standards of Citizenship curriculum teaches responsibility, kindness, and the importance of civic engagement, helping students appreciate their roles in their communities and as citizens. Together, these programs ensure students are prepared for academic and personal success.
