This school is fantastic. Great teachers who really care about their students.

We have been apart of this school for 7 years and have experience with all grades K-8th. I have had 2 kids graduate and go on to highschool from legacy. They have not been properly prepared for the next level. Junior high has had repeated years of high teacher turn over, the jr high curriculum is not consistent and severely lacks a writing curriculum. K-5 teaches basic curriculum but doesn’t focus on all subjects. None of my kids have the knowledge of how to spell, phonemic awareness, grammar knowledge or writing. This school severely lacks in teaching the fundamentals. The math program is ok but again my kids struggle with some of the fundamentals of math like multiplication and division. After experiencing my 2 older kids graduating and going to highschool I pulled out my 2 younger kids to get them in a better academic program where they are thriving after 1 year under better education. The administrations focus seems to be on growth rather than academics. With the continued growth that they are pushing has come high teacher turn over and great slip in focusing on academics and school security. My kids were bullied on numerous occasions and the administrations pushed behavior off to the teachers who’s main job should be to teach the children not deal with behavior. We have experienced a lot of behavior in classrooms not being addressed. Parents are not very engaged and nobody holds the administration accountable for the mediocre approach to teaching and running a school. There is a lot of blame shifting when it comes to administration, they have an excuse for everything and it’s never their fault. School security has been a big issue as they have added portable classrooms in their parking lot without any barrier to protect the buildings. Their test scores have dropped significantly and this is a true reflection of the poor leadership with in the school. The main reason we chose to leave is the school does not properly prepare kids for Highschool. I don’t have time for my kids to get behind more. I have spoken with the administration about this multiple times over the past 3 years and nothing has changed. We have many friends at the school and the teachers that are still there are phenomenal. I hope the administration can pull it together and get the school pack on track.
