Tuition may be paid over 10 or 11 months, or paid in full at any time during the school year. Tuition is non-refundable.

ADMISSION PROCESS
1. READ: It is very important that you read about classical Christian education if you do not already have a good understanding of the Trivium and this type of education. There are links on the 'Resources' page of our website. Prior to filling out an application, please read Legacy's Statement of Faith, Vision and Core Values to make sure you are in agreement with these.

2. APPLICATION AND SIGNED STATEMENT OF FAITH:
The completed and signed Student Application, Statement of Faith, and Parent Covenant can either be mailed to the school or dropped off at the school office along with the $75 non-refundable application fee. A signed Statement of Faith and Parent Covenant must be turned in with your student application. You may print these from our website.

3. PARENT INTERVIEW AND READINESS TEST: Once we receive your Student Application, signed Statement of Faith, and signed Parent Covenant, we will call you to schedule a parent interview and child readiness test. The interview will be conducted to answer any questions you may have regarding classical Christian education, and to confirm that we are in agreement on the spiritual teachings we will be providing to your child. While the parent interview is taking place, a readiness test will be given to the child. Both parents (or guardians) are required to be present for the parent interview.

4. LETTER OF ACCEPTANCE OR DENIAL After the parent interview and the child readiness tests are completed, a decision will be made to either accept or decline the applicant into Legacy. Letters of Denial will explain why we feel this school is not a good fit for your child/family.

5. ENROLLMENT: If accepted, the non-refundable registration fee of $250 is due by March 31st.
Late Enrollment: The non-refundable registration fee is $350 for those registering after March 31st.

After enrolling we will send you a welcome packet with uniform information and forms for you to fill out. We are required by law to obtain from you a copy of your child's birth certificate and immunization history for our records.

Sibling Discounts: Legacy offers a discount for families when enrolling more than one child in our school. The first child enrolled will pay the regular tuition amount until the second child attends Legacy. At that point, both children and each subsequent child enrolled will receive a 10% discount on tuition.

WITHHDRAWING STUDENTS: To withdraw a student from Legacy, a 30-day written notice is required with tuition paid in full through the 30 days. School records will not be released until these obligations have been met.
