Girls Locker Room Transformation
The girls’ locker room has undergone an incredible transformation thanks to the hard work and dedication of Mr. and Mrs. Robbins! What was once a plain, tired space has been completely remodeled into a stunning, refreshed environment our Lady Warriors can be proud of. Their vision, effort, and attention to detail have made this space truly extraordinary. We are so grateful for the time and care they poured into this project to make our girls feel celebrated and ready to represent Legacy in style. Thank you, Mr. and Mrs. Robbins, for turning an ordinary locker room into something AMAZING!
Legends Dominate at Navy-White Night
The competition was fierce at our Legendary Navy vs. White Night! Our boys and girls basketball teams hit the court for scrimmages against the Legends and Lady Legends—and the Legends showed they still have game! The Legends dominated the Warriors, while the Lady Legends secured a decisive victory over the Lady Warriors. Students and families joined the fun with shooting competitions and an exciting round of Knockout. It was a night full of school spirit, friendly rivalry, and LEGACY PRIDE! It was a fantastic kickoff to Warrior basketball season. Once a Warrior, always a Warrior!
Warriors Take the Win at Ball in the Burg
Legacy made its mark at the Ball in the Burg tournament! The Lady Warriors dominated the court with an impressive 58–31 win over Victory, while the Warriors proved they were a force to be reckoned with, powering past Excel 70–38! Both teams brought the intensity, teamwork, and Warrior spirit, keeping the trophy right where it belongs—in the Burg! What a fantastic kickoff to the Legacy Warrior basketball season! We can’t wait to see what our Warriors and Lady Warriors accomplish this year. Way to go, Warriors!
Bringing Science to Life
Mrs. Spoo’s Physical Science class brought atomic theory to life with a chocolate chip cookie experiment, demonstrating the differences between Bohr’s Atomic Model and the Plum Pudding Model. The students shared their science knowledge—and their cookies—with Mrs. Bean’s toddler class, who returned the favor by sharing a reading of If You Give a Mouse a Cookie. It was a sweet day of hands-on learning, sharing, and cross-classroom fun!
