“From the first moment we entered The Legacy School (during the parent visit), we immediately knew that it was meant for our child. The teachers at The Legacy School are truly incredible. Their patience and overwhelming kindness are evident every day. They have taken an interest in my son, not just from an educational view, but they learned his special interests and tapped into them to motivate him academically. My husband and I are continuously grateful for The Legacy School. It transformed our kid who couldn’t sound out the word C-A-T, into a confident child who is now attempting to read signs and knows hundreds of sight words! Without a doubt, this was the best decision we could have made for our child.“
