Legacy Online SchoolReviews of legacyonlineschool.com

Before enrollment, everyone was helpful and quick to answer. After I paid for the full year, that changed completely. My daughter is coming from an international IB school, and the school knew this from the start. I was told the LSS team would evaluate her credits after enrollment. Only after I paid was I asked to pay around $200 for an external evaluation through Scholaro, with extra fees to get it faster. I paid it. Weeks later we still don't have a final graduation plan, the same questions are being asked again as if nobody read our earlier emails, and my latest email has gone unanswered. I also called the school today. A person finally answered, was clearly unwilling to help, and hung up on me. Just like that. The school feels full of AI. We get long automated messages that don't answer what we actually asked, and I wouldn't be surprised if the replies to reviews here are written by an AI agent too. I imagine the few staff members are overloaded by the demand and by a bottleneck the company created itself, and I honestly sympathize with the precarious conditions they seem to be working in. I hope management reflects on this and makes better choices, both for their staff and for their students. But my daughter still needs to study, and I paid for a service. My advice: do not pay for the full year upfront. Once the payment is made, they really seem to disappear. If you are considering this school, I would suggest choosing another one so you don't end up in the same situation as us.

My daughter is a second-grade student enrolled at Legacy Online School as a self-paced student, and I am grateful to see her hard work paying off through her consistency and dedication. It is a blessing to see her progress, and I feel confident that I made a good decision in choosing Legacy. She also joined the Elementary Reading Book Club and really enjoyed it. However, I would appreciate more personalized communication between teachers and self-paced students, as responses to questions or concerns can take time. Scheduled video or phone calls with parents would help build trust and reassurance that each child is receiving personal guidance and support. I also believe the elementary Spanish curriculum could be improved. Since the lessons are primarily taught in English, with only the exercises in Spanish, my daughter found the experience less engaging than I had hoped. A more immersive curriculum using neutral, practical Spanish would be beneficial. Overall, I appreciate the flexibility and the progress my daughter has made, and I hope these suggestions help make the experience even better for other families.

Great teachers

My experience with Legacy Online School has been extremely frustrating, especially when it comes to communication. I sent dozens of emails and called countless times, but rarely received a response. On the first day of school I was sent no links at all to join the classes for that day. For the first two and a half months of the school year, they never gave me access to the AP Psychology course I had already paid for, despite me repeatedly contacting them. Eventually, they added the course, but I was still expected to complete all the work I missed, even though it wasn't my fault that I couldn't access the course in the first place. The teachers also aren't the best when it comes to helping students. Many don't respond to inbox emails when students have questions, which makes online learning much harder. Overall, the communication and organization seriously need improvement. I would definitely think twice before enrolling.

I enrolled our two kids [grades 4 & 3] and have been very happy with the selection of Legacy School. The School is well structured, the teaching is engaging, and the online platform is user friendly - however it needs a day or two to guide the kids how to use it. It is amazing! More importantly kids are very exciting about the extra curricula activities. Fees are comparatively reasonable. I am extremely thankful to Mr. Farouq (Middle East Coordinator). He is very responsive and supportive. He has supported me throughout enrollment and onboarding process.

Our first experience with Legacy was my daughter's Summer School program after which she decided she'd love to continue her academic journey with Legacy. We enrolled her in the 8th Grade Part-Time Program, which allows her to attend both school and her extracurricular activities, accounting for different time zones we're in. Taniele (our Learning Specialist) assisted us throughout the enrollment and onboarding, and we truly appreciate her being there for us and making the whole process as quick and hassle-free as possible. My daughter has now successfully started her classes, and all of them, including her electives, are conveniently available on the platform which allows for access to learning materials, assignments as well as planning, indepth information on grades and direct contact with teachers. She was really excited to join the classes, and have already made some friends with her peers. Here is to another successful cycle with Legacy School!

This is our second year at Legacy Online School, and we are very happy with our experience. I really love the curriculum, and the teachers and the school team in general are very kind, supportive, and attentive. The platform is also very easy to understand. I feel that the school fits our needs perfectly, both personally and educationally. We travel frequently, so having the flexibility of an online school is extremely important for our family. At the same time, my daughter actively participates in the group classes and has the opportunity to build meaningful connections with her classmates during the short breaks. We are very happy with the balance between flexibility, academics, and social interaction that the school provides. We are planning to continue with the school throughout her entire primary education, and we highly recommend it to other families looking for a flexible and supportive online school.

Administration cares about details, veteran teachers, my kids like them. You are great in everything thing
