About Legacy High School

Legacy is a comprehensive high school with college- and career-oriented pathway language on its school site. Assignment is based on the home address and attendance zone.

The school describes itself as a College & Career Academy. This is campus branding, not the same as a district Career & Technical Academy filled through a magnet lottery.

The campus includes arts, clubs and NIAA athletics alongside academic and career-focused options. Program names, seats, enrollment and capacity can change.

How families get in

Legacy is a zoned comprehensive high school. Families should verify assignment using the exact home address because neighborhood names are not reliable.

Check the exact street address with the CCSD zoning lookup.
Register through standard CCSD enrollment if Legacy is the assigned school.
Out-of-zone access, if offered, follows current district Choice rules and depends on campus capacity.
Do not assume that an open-enrollment or zone-variance seat is available.

Check before applying

Confirm that Legacy is assigned to the exact home address.
If you live outside the zone, check whether the campus appears on the current CCSD Choice eligibility list.
Transportation and out-of-zone placement are not guaranteed.

Zoning, capacity and Choice eligibility can change. Confirm current rules on official CCSD pages.
