Legacy Academy: A Commitment to Excellence in Athletics

At Legacy Academy, we believe athletics play a vital role in shaping the character, discipline, and teamwork of our students. Over the years, our student-athletes, coaches, and community have demonstrated an unwavering commitment to excellence, achieving remarkable milestones that continue to build our reputation for success.

State Championships: A Proud Tradition 

Legacy Academy is proud to celebrate the achievements of our state championship teams:

Girls' Track and Field (2023):
  • At the NMAA 1A State Track and Field Championships in May 2023, our girls' team delivered exceptional performances, highlighting their hard work, dedication, and perseverance.
Girls' Powerlifting (2023-2024):
  • Our girls' powerlifting team made Legacy Academy history by earning a state championship during the 2023-2024 school year. Their strength and commitment to excellence inspire us all.

Football: From Growth to Greatness 

Our football program has made incredible strides in recent years. Transitioning from 8-man to 11-man football, the Legacy Academy Silverbacks have proven they are a force to be reckoned with. In the 2024 season, the team achieved a 9-2 record, including a notable victory over Hope Christian, a former state championship-winning team. This success reflects the hard work of our athletes and the dedication of our coaching staff.

Volleyball: A Team on the Rise 

Legacy Academy Volleyball continues to thrive, with teams ranging from middle school to varsity. In the 2024 season, our varsity team achieved an impressive 14-2 overall record, secured the 7-2A District title, and made its third appearance at the NMAA State Volleyball Tournament. Guided by values like "We Over Me" and "One Team, One Dream," our volleyball athletes exemplify the teamwork and determination that define Legacy Academy.

Our Commitment to Excellence 

At Legacy Academy, athletics are about more than winning championships—they’re about building leaders. Through discipline, teamwork, and sportsmanship, our athletes grow both on and off the field. We are proud of their accomplishments and look forward to many more moments of triumph as we continue to develop a legacy of excellence.

Congratulations to all our student-athletes, coaches, and supporters who make these achievements possible. Together, we are leaving a lasting impact and inspiring future generations to uphold the Legacy Academy name with pride.

"We are especially grateful for Legacy Academy’s alignment with the values of Legacy Church. The sense of safety, strong faith foundation, and nurturing environment has made this school an integral part of our family’s life."

"What stood out about Legacy Academy was its well-structured and concise curriculum. It provides exactly what students need to excel and prepare for the next grade level, setting a strong foundation for academic success."

Alba A.

"As parents of four children who all attend Legacy Academy, our journey has been nothing short of remarkable. Our oldest child has been at Legacy for seven years, and we couldn’t be more grateful for the role this school has played in their lives."

Bryan P.

"Our family has been part of Legacy Academy for 5 years, starting during the COVID shutdown. The experience has been life-changing for our kids—better for their lives and truly fulfilling. The Christ-centered values at Legacy Academy matter deeply to our family, as each subject connects to Biblical principles, shaping our kids both academically and spiritually."

Victor S.

"Jessie thrived at Legacy Academy, becoming a valedictorian and excelling in college. She loved her school experience. My son Anthony has grown up at Legacy Academy, and it has shaped his life. He loves his school, teachers, classmates, and even seeing his principal worship God on stage."

Mel M.

"Legacy Academy reflects the same loving values parents teach at home. The staff is helpful and caring, making our experience as parents nothing but great. Our daughters are learning more in-depth subjects than they would in public school, including the true history of America, while also understanding that God’s hand is in every aspect of life."

Joshua B.

"We chose Legacy because we believe a Christian education is essential for the spiritual and educational formation of our children. We wanted to avoid secular influences that could undermine their faith during these formative years. Our children have had an incredible experience. Legacy has become an all-in-one solution for their church and school life, reinforcing both. They are happy, engaged, and excited to attend. They’re learning vital truths about God and His creation, and they are surrounded by friends and teachers who share our faith and values."
