The countdown to Winter Break is complete! This last week of school for 2022 was a busy one on the flight deck. Monday students received their new laptop cases. Almost all students have one. If your student was absent and did not receive a case they will receive one when they return in January. Holiday and wonderful music was spread by our band and orchestra during Tuesday's concert. Wednesday we started our last few days of the semester with no backpacks. We greatly appreciated our students following this expectation ensuring that academics continued during the last few days as safely as possible.
Last Thursday the weather impacted normal operations on campus. The 30/30 had students in their third period for a few hours. During this time, our Food and Nutrition Services team were able to safely deliver lunches to all our students. We greatly appreciate all their hard work here at Legacy on a daily basis. During the week we also celebrated the upcoming holidays with our faculty and staff in various ways such as a cookie exchange, a sweater contest and a white elephant gift exchange.

During Winter Break I hope all Jets spend time with their families, rest, relax and recharge. When we return to the flight deck on January 4th, the next round of FAST testing will be just around the corner. January 9th and 10th will both be state testing days. Basketball tryouts and 8th grade high school registration will begin as well when we return.
I will see everyone back on the flight deck in 2023!

Legacy's FNS team shines through despite Thursday's foul weather! |
During Thursday's 30/30, our wonderful Food & Nutrition Service (FNS) team made it possible for all of our students to be fed safely in their classrooms. It takes a village to feed all of our students and everyone came together and the mission was completed before 1:30pm on Thursday! |
