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 lot of great opportunities to offer. Its sports are top-tier, and its academic programs are decent.

As a freshman the first half of my year at Legend has been okay. I was in the freshman football team and am taking several honors level courses. It has been an adjustment from middle school as there is twice as much homework. Most of my teachers seem knowledgeable in their subjects and have given fair grades. The majority of students are involved in extracurricular activities and there are a lot of choices to keep you busy during the off season.

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...
