Catch the Wave of Innovation
A MESSAGE FROM DR. HARRISON
Hello Legacy Families!
It was another great week here at LMA!
You may have noticed on campus on through our social media that it is DINO DASH TIME! If you are new to Legacy, we LOVE the Dinosaur Dash, and take great pride in being the highest participating secondary school three years in a row. We need your help to keep that title running for the 4th year! Sign up using the button below, and we will see you at the Dash!
Additionally, please mark your calendars for Tuesday, 10/24/23 at 5:00pm in the Legacy Gym for a very important Parent Workshop presented by Challenge Success (based out of Stanford University). Our presenter, Margaret Dunlap, will be sharing research-based information on how to support our students as they navigate the pressures of High School and beyond. We hope to see everyone there!
We appreciate your ongoing support of Legacy Magnet Academy and look forward to a wonderful year as we partner together to deliver the best program to our students!
Take care and stay safe,
Dr. Harrison, Principal
