our history

Our Beginning

Legacy Academy was established in 2005 in Albuquerque, New Mexico, as a ministry of Legacy Church. With a vision to provide a Christ-centered education, the school started by serving preschool through 8th grade. Rooted in Biblical principles, Legacy Academy quickly became a trusted partner for families seeking academic excellence combined with spiritual formation.

Growth and Excellence

Over the years, Legacy Academy expanded to meet the needs of its growing community. By the 2020-2021 academic year, the academy proudly offered programs from pre-kindergarten through 12th grade. Accredited and recognized for its challenging curriculum, the school integrates a Biblical worldview into all subjects, fostering a disciplined and nurturing environment where students excel academically and spiritually. Legacy academy equips students with the skills, faith, and character need to make a meaningful impact. As an extension of Legacy Church’s mission, Legacy Academy remains committed to developing future leaders who are prepared to serve their communities and fulfill their God-given purpose.
