GreatSchools Rating
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.

Legend has a well round academics department, offering AP, ACC, and other college level classes in almost every subject. I have personally really enjoyed most of my teachers and had an amazing time at Legend. In particular, the theatre and performing arts departments are outstanding.

Legend has definitely seen substantial growth in the past few years. The best part of my experience is that the teachers understand that life sometimes gets in the way and they are here to support you. Something I would like to see change is the favoritism of students because their parents work at the school.

I think the biggest problem with legend is the way the admin consistently address issues in the worst way possible and normally make more problems than not. I think if admin was completely replaced it would be a lot better school, as the teachers are good and it has the resources to be a very effective school.

There are many opportunities to get involved. The teachers care about their students. We had a concern when we first moved, and the leadership team handled it immediately.

Both of my boys have gone to Legend High School (graduated 2019 and 2022) and have both loved it. They were only involved in sports for the first couple years and then found their passions in TSA, DECA, and FBLA. It's not true that Legend only cares about athletes as some of these reviews say. They...

his school sucks, the admin create an environment where only the athletes strive to be successful. The only teachers that like their job are the coaches(which is where our principal got his start!) and the only students that think this is a good school are the oblivious athletes. All other programs...
