Open House This Tuesday!

The first day of school is almost here! Join us Tuesday, August 25, at 6:00 p.m. for Open House.

Students and parents can meet their teachers, visit classrooms, drop off school supplies, and get ready for a great new year at Legacy. We cannot wait to welcome our Warrior families back to campus and see everyone again!

We Don’t Do the First Day of School Like Everyone Else—We LAUNCH!

Our first two days of school are dedicated to LAUNCH—a time for our entire school to come together and set the culture, tone, and spiritual emphasis for the year ahead. Students will participate in schoolwide sessions and worship, play games, compete with their Warrior Houses, and welcome new students into their Houses!

LAUNCH is more than the start of school—it’s how we begin the year united as one Warrior family, building and strengthening relationships as we prepare for all God has in store!

Grandparents Day Lunch | September 4

We invite all grandparents to join us for a special Grandparents Day Lunch on Friday, September 4!

PK–6th Grade Lunch: 11:20 a.m.

7th–12th Grade Lunch: 11:50 a.m.

Grandparents with students in both groups are welcome to stay for both lunch periods. Come enjoy a delicious lunch provided by Ms. Gilmore and spend time with your grandchildren!

We are so grateful for our Legacy grandparents and the meaningful role they play in the hearts and lives of our students. Please come join us as we celebrate you!

Student Volunteers Needed! Service Hours Available!

We need student volunteers to help us clean, organize, and prepare the campus for the new school year! There is still a lot to accomplish before students return, and your help would make a tremendous difference.

This is a great opportunity for students to get some required service hours while helping Legacy get ready for another successful school year.

If you are available to help, please contact the school office or email cynthia.kesterson@legacymail.org as soon as possible.
