Back to School Newsletter 26-27!

Our library is now open for Secondary Students all day every THURSDAY only.

The front office always has a book-drop for returned library books available.

Please stop by the front office, by Friday 10/23, to verify the spelling of your name for your diploma.

Beginning Monday, 10/12 all phalanxes may now wear their t-shirts with approved dress code bottoms on Tuesdays! Each phalanx will receive 50 points for 100% MS participation and 50 points for 100% HS participation.

We're looking forward to a great testing day on Friday, October 23! Testing will begin promptly at 8:00 a.m. and finish by lunch. All secondary students will be testing that morning!

All students are already signed up, and Legacy is covering the cost, so you don't need to do anything.

One important note: if a student misses testing that day, no makeup tests will be offered. Please do everything you can to have your student here on test day.

Thank you for partnering with us as we help your students do their best.

Parents and students, please join our Middle School and High School Athletics Google Albums!

These albums are a great place to share:

• Short videos
• Practice photos
• Game action shots
• Team pictures
• Fun candid moments

Photos and videos shared in the albums may be used on Legacy Athletics social media, the Legacy website, or in school publications. Please be mindful of what you upload and make sure photos are appropriate and ready to be shared.

We will also use photos from these albums to create our end-of-the-year Athletic Banquet slideshow, so please help us capture the season!

Leo Weeks Photography will be on campus taking yearbook photos of students who missed their opportunity at Legacy Launch.

All secondary students are required to have 20 service hours each school year. You are encouraged to turn in all of your summer hours now to get a head start toward your goal.

If you are a student driver, please ensure that you have a completed motor vehicle form submitted to the office, along with a copy of your driver's license and proof of insurance. A new form is required each school year.

Many families in our area — including a number of current Legacy families — were awarded TEFA funds for this school year. The TEFA funds are a great opportunity to help offset tuition costs, and we don't want any family to miss out simply because they weren't aware or didn't apply previously. If you did not apply or are on the waitlist, we strongly encourage you to submit the interest form. The interest form will be useful as the Texas Legislature contemplates increasing funding for the TEFA program. After completing the form, you will also be added to their mailing list for any updates and information on the program.

• Some items will be in stock, while others will need to be ordered, so everyone is encouraged to purchase in June.
• Khaki pants or shorts may be purchased at other locations in the "khaki" color
