Be A Star and Swing Our Doors Open

Our Mission 

Legacy Microschool is a community of middle school students in TX where teachers facilitate a bottom-up, student-centered exploration of discovery to mastery of paths that lead students to become independent contributing citizens of their community. Our goal is to ignite a passion for lifelong learning and high achieving for all students and families. Each learner will identify a passion or purpose and navigate a path to fulfilling the requirements of the chosen goal.

Equally important our mission also includes increasing the retention rate of educators through staff development, personal development, and team building.

Often times students fall through the crack as a result of large classroom sizes, peer pressure, lack of interest, and not being able to relate to curriculum and a lack of differentiation.

At Legacy Micro School we will bridge the gap for learners, and prepare them to become community role models and leave a Legacy of their very own.

We are designing a learning centered environment that meets the academic and social emotional needs of all students enrolled….. and fosters respect for self, educators, and others.

Our Philosophy & Curriculum

Academics: We will facilitate theory to practice including but not limited to the following optional hybrid methods, programs, and tools: Edgenuity, Socratic Method, Research, Khan Academy, NEWSELA Current events and reading comprehension as well as consider curriculum requested by parents.

Career Tracks: The following program cohorts will include daily, hands-on teacher –led instruction: Discover Your Gift/Purpose, Coding/Robotics, Cyber Security, Data Analyst/Investor/Trader and Entrepreneur.

Our students will have a fast track to a career in Finance and/or Tech. Our students will be assigned a community mentor to increase their change of success. 

Our School Day

We will find success through a shortened academic day which will run from 9 AM – 1 PM. The Career Cohorts will study and practice from 1:30 PM – 3:30 PM. SEL will be infused throughout the school day beginning with a wellness check at the beginning of the school day. We will serve breakfast and lunch for a small fee. Students have the option to bring their meals. While recommended students are not required to be present 5 days a week, but are required to continue with lessons while at home, in the hospital, or away receiving treatment.
