The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

As a teacher working here, this is a great school. The best school that I have taught at. The kids are respectful, and the teachers care about the kids. The kids have fun and enjoy the school. There is great passion at the school and I feel that this is where I want my child to go to school.

There is no cafeteria, so you must provide home lunches every day (which might be better anyway). The teachers are wonderful and care so much. I regularly receive emails from both the office about administrative stuff, and my child's teacher about things specific to her and her class. Also, there are two campuses, so the school is K-9 which is unusual. Since LPA is a charter, the student-to-teacher ratio is favorable compared to public schools.

As a teacher, I am happy working with the amazing administrations, staff, parents, and students. As a parent, I am happy that my child is a part of the educational programs that Legacy offers. The school counselors are also amazing at helping our students learn coping skills to have a better day.

The school Director and Jr. high Principal are horrendous. The police were called on a current student and the Director tried to press trespassing charges. Numerous, phenomenal teachers are leaving the school.

We have had kids at this school for 13 years. We have been through many teachers and admins. Overall we have loved LPA. My kid was more than ready for high school. We love the extra curriculars and all our kids can do with the smaller environment.

The elementary school is exceptional, providing a wonderful environment for young learners. However, the Junior High is in a state of crisis. The recent change in administration has brought unprofessional leadership, with the principal running the school in an authoritarian manner. This has led to t...

The board of directors are buddies with the school directors and look the other way when there are issues. The co directors of the school and horrible. One of them especially yells at students and treats parents terrible. Her child walks around saying “I’ll have my mom expel you.” The junior high pr...
