The Titan Times

As we enter November, the spirit of gratitude is alive throughout our halls, and I want to extend my deepest appreciation to our dedicated staff, supportive families, and resilient students. This season serves as a wonderful reminder of the strength of our school community and the incredible achievements we continue to accomplish together. Thank you for your unwavering partnership in making Legend such an excellent place to learn and grow.

From Wednesday, November 4th through Wednesday, November 18th, Legend will be collecting canned foods and high needs foods for the PTF. The Parker Task Force serves nearly 10,000 families, and our school goal is to send 10,000+ food items to the task force at the end of this two week period.

How can you help? Please help us by sending canned food or other food items to school. We are running a canned food competition through all classes, so please encourage your child to bring food items to their classes for the next couple of weeks.

You might also see a bag on your front porch to fill if you live near Legend. We'll be dropping off bags in the neighborhoods, and then we'll return to pick them up. The October High Needs List for the Parker Task Force is linked here. To find the November High Needs List please go to their website linked here. We sure do value your help!

Our school accountability meetings will be November 11th from 4 - 5:30 in Post Grad. Please review our SAC Website if you have any questions or if you wish to attend. Also any questions can be emailed to LegendSAC@dcsdk12.org.

Come and learn about opportunities to earn an associates degree while attending Legend High School.

The first semester will conclude on December 17th, 2026. We have finals week Monday through Thursday. On Friday, grades will be finalized for the first semester. There are no early finals. If your student misses their final, please have them coordinate a plan to make it up the first week back in January.

We celebrated students that exemplify one our our core values last week. Congratulations to these fantastic Titans.
