Legacy Academy uses a balanced approach to the education of young children. Each day includes both child-initiated and teacher-directed activities. Legacy Academy values the interests and unique talents children bring to their learning environment. The children are given many opportunities to work on problems that are of interest to them, and to experience success in resolving the problems that arise from their own attempts to understand their world. The learning environment is designed to encourage children to participate in a variety of learning activities appropriate for their level of development. Play, learning centers, projects, and other child-centered experiences provide opportunities to integrate literacy and social skill development. Our children are encouraged to become independent learners by making choices and accepting responsibility. In addition to an enriched classroom environment, children participate in learning a foreign language, music of the Great Masters, Character Building, and Brain Power activities.

The Legacy Academy staff respects the developmental stages of each child. We understand that children possess a dynamic continuum of development. We work closely with families to ensure that the child’s cognitive, social, physical, and emotional needs are met.
