Legacy Christian School

We researched different schools and were referred to Legacy, we had high hopes that it would be part of our youngest son's Legacy, however our experience was far from a legacy, and far from following Christian Moral. After completing the online documents, paying the application fee and meeting with staff and "teacher Janet" we were welcomed nicely upon arrival. They took our 5 year old aside asked us to sit around the corner , on the red couch while they "assessed" our son. We thought ok , sure . Our son grew up in covid lockdowns and was unable to obtain preschool or gain those pre Kindergarten benefits.  He does have a lovely teen sister who has schooled him on numbers and abc's . He knows it well as a basic start. When he was finished , the staff told us school would begin on Tuesday! He was Delighted to finally meet friends,  and start his learning.  Then,  the next day, we receive a denial, which stated he's behind in kindergarten skills and would not be able to attend.  How would this make a child feel? Go figure! To follow a Christian path, will not be found in a place like this. They seem to not have any resources to accommodate children with special needs or even give a proper assessment.  I'll also mention the school inside is outdated and no windows in the classrooms that we could see while inside.

Wonderful school with traditional education and values. Students actually learn History vs social sciences in Public school. My 7th grader is enjoying Bible studies and in person learning and developing friendships she craved and missed for so long in 2020. We couldn't wait any longer just like many of the other parents. We have rearranged some things and sacrificing a bit more so we can make this work for us. I am very thankful and gracious for God helping us through this tough year. I would give 5 stars if sports teams had resumed. We just have this to look forward to. Thank you LCS from a grateful parent!

This is a beautiful little school nestled in a neighborhood in South San Jose. The staff is incredibly friendly and the preschool teachers are great and loving. The kiddos have a nice schedule of activities in the morning, lunch and nap time. If you are in the area and looking for a nice school, you don't have to look any further.

When we realized that our public school was not going to open any time soon due to the pandemic, we enrolled our 1st and 3rd grader to attend Legacy.  So far we love this school and the thoughtful and kind staff.  This is a VERY small school (one class per grade) so everyone knows everybody and almost all teachers have children attending the school.  It seems that the majority of the staff are on each other's class Facebook pages and everyone knows what everyone else is doing at the school and in class.  It's a tight knit community and could be even tighter if we could be "closer" together but due to the restrictions brought on by the pandemic, only staff and students are allowed on campus.  Of course we would love to visit my kids classrooms and see what they are doing and have quick 5 minute talks here and there with their teachers, but this cannot be.  However, the teachers have been very responsive to any emails we've sent them, and we get to have our in-person hello's when we pick up our kids afterschool (the teachers wait with he kids during pick-up times).  The school is doing a great job following county protocols and we feel lucky that our kids are getting in-person instructions unlike the other students attending public schools.  We intend to keep them there even after things go back to normal with the public schools.

This school has a gorgeous landscape. Location feels safe too. But- I'm in tech and the tech here is severely lacking. I don't expect a small school to compensate education with technology like the surrounding public schools do. The building itself is just old. I couldn't look past that. I couldn't get past the weary look. Not with the other small Christian schools nearby. This would be a great place to raise kids up in- but I couldn't get passed the old, worn down feel when I attended a ceremony. I wouldn't feel safe to be there all day- due to how run down the campus appeared. But I'm used to new buildings , with state of the art equipment. I shouldn't judge a book by its cover- but if you get passed the building and outdated toys and equipment- this is probably what wholesome really is.
