He's thriving and getting great grades all thanks to the amazing teachers. I love that they have enrichment classes starting in kinder. He says it makes his day so much more fun getting to rotate and learn about Computers, Art, Science, Library, Bible, and Spanish. In second grade he was at a 6th grade 6 month reading level which blew me away! As parents we also love that we get to be involved so much, from volunteering in class, to being included in Friday Chapel, to helping with field trips and holiday activities, it's all amazing. The second you walk in to Legacy it feels like home, everyone is so welcoming and kind. We can't wait for more years to come.

I'm also very grateful for the school's success in instilling a strong moral compass, Christian values, and an understanding of Christianity. That was truly top-tier. That said, we've unenrolled and will be attending public school for the 2026-2027 school year, along with what I understand to be at least 100 other families. The primary reason is that the general sentiment is that the cost of tuition no longer matches the quality of education being provided. We've experienced tuition increases every year for the past 3-4 years, maybe even the last 5 years. This includes increases of 9%, 6%, 5%... There is no indication these increases are slowing down, yet the educational experience has not kept pace with what families should reasonably expect from such an expensive private school. Academically, students transitioning to public school have often been behind in math to the point that the school has since improved its math curriculum, starting this school year. That's great for future students, but for the tuition being charged, this should never have been an issue in the first place. The same can be said for Spanish. My oldest attended Legacy from K-4 and my youngest from K-2. They took Spanish every year, yet neither can speak or understand more than a few basic words. This seems to be common among students who are not already bilingual. After years of paying for Spanish instruction, there should be significantly more to show for it. There has also been a noticeable change in the school's culture since its partnership with Grace Community Church in Sunland (not to be confused with Grace Baptist here in SCV) and the increased involvement of The Master's University (TMU). Many families feel the school has become more business-oriented and that hiring increasingly favors individuals connected to Grace or TMU, creating a perception of nepotism. Security is another major concern. With more than 500 students across a K-12 campus consisting of multiple buildings, having only one security guard during school hours is simply inadequate. A campus of this size should have at least two guards to provide meaningful coverage. Then there's a lack of law enforcement experience with the guard for the last 2 years. When Legacy first implemented armed security, law-enforcement experience was mandatory. That standard has since changed, and the current guard does not have any kind of law-enforcement background and is limited to basic security experience. By comparison, Trinity Classical Academy has multiple guards on campus and their security personnel have law-enforcement backgrounds. For a school charging premium tuition, I believe that level of security should be the minimum expectation. Ultimately, the biggest issue is value. Going into 2026-2027, tuition for my two elementary-age children would have been $4,500 per month, before future increases. High school tuition is already around $3,000 per month per student, before future increases. At those prices, families should expect an exceptional academic experience, strong college preparation, and a robust security program that is consistent with a premium private school. Instead, many graduates are attending schools such as TMU or UC campuses. There is nothing wrong with those schools, but when Legacy presents itself as a premier, prestigious private Christian school and charges premium tuition, it is reasonable for parents to question whether the overall educational value and outcomes justify the price. Legacy does many things well--particularly its Christian foundation, teachers, and family involvement-- The question is no longer whether Legacy is a good school. The question is whether it is a $30,000-$50,000-per-year school. Based on our experience, we no longer believe it is.

The love that you feel when you walk through the front doors is unexplainable. If it's something that you've thought about, even just for a second, I highly recommend to go to a Discover Trinity meeting. I would get in contact with Elizabeth Hosmann asap. You will want to become her best friend, I promise she's literally one of the best but she's also a wealth of knowledge and can answer any and all questions for you.

Horrible school if you want to learn and socialize. Most people already have friend groups, and…read moredon't socialize with new students. Also, the school has a major bullying problem that they have covered up for a while now and only did the bare minimum if pushed to do. If you are not in the main popular friend group, you most likely cant talk to anyone. You'll also most likely be bullied if you don't like whatever the popular kids like, and people always beat each other up, and they do the most minimal punishments. I heard someone who caused a ton of people to bully someone else only got 1 day of ISS for doing that. So yea, i totally recommend not going here

She always keeps open communication with us as parents, which we deeply appreciate. We always know what is happening at school and how we can support Daniel together.

A special thank you as well to Miss Rosemary and Miss Soymia for their care and dedication. They always create such lovely celebrations and special moments for the children.

Since being in her classroom, we have noticed a significant increase in Alexander's confidence, especially when speaking in front of others. Knowing that Ms. Jethal also has experience as a public speaking professor for adults, it is easy to see how her ability to build confidence and communication skills carries over into the way she teaches and encourages her students. What we appreciate most is that her teaching goes far beyond traditional academics. We have seen Alexander become more focused and engaged not only with words, numbers, geography, and other foundational subjects, but also with skills that have meaningful real-world applications. Ms. Jethal incorporates meditation, deep breathing exercises, interpersonal skills, communication, and emotional awareness into the classroom. These are lessons that will benefit children far beyond their time in school. Her attentiveness, patience, and dedication to Alexander, and to her students as a whole, have been very apparent to us as parents. It means so much to know that our son is learning from a teacher who genuinely cares about both his academic development and the kind of person he is becoming. Our experience with Ms. Jethal has been so positive that it is one of the reasons we are planning to enroll our other son at Montessori Stevenson Ranch as well. Teachers like Ms. Jethal give parents hope and reassurance that there are still educators who are deeply invested in teaching children not only academics, but also the values, confidence, discipline, communication skills, and emotional tools they need to grow into capable and compassionate young men and women. Thank you, Ms. Jethal, for the time, energy, patience, and care you invest in Alexander every day. Your influence is noticed at home, and we truly appreciate everything you do for him and for all of your students. We feel very fortunate that Alexander has you as his teacher!
