We can’t believe it, but it’s almost that time of the year: time to start thinking about your child’s 2020-2021 school registration. With registration right around the corner, there’s no better time than now to start researching the best option for your child’s education.
Why choose Legacy when deciding on a private school in Omaha?
- Quality of Our Teachers:
Because of the competencies early educators must have to guide development effectivity, we require all of our teachers, Preschool-6th Grade, to hold at least a Bachelors Degree in Education. With a degree, our teachers have the skill, experience, and knowledge to structure learning experiences that guide development.
- Student-to-Teacher Ratio:
Students at Legacy School do not get lost in the crowd, as class sizes are extremely small in comparison to other Omaha private and public schools. Each classroom has a teacher as well as a teacher’s assistant and has no more than 18 students. Our small classes allow Legacy School teachers to work on each child’s specific reading and writing needs.
- The Curriculum:
At Legacy School, teachers understand that students have different needs when it comes to learning. That’s why Legacy uses a differentiated instruction approach in which teachers proactively plan their lessons based on their students’ strengths. In this way, teachers can refine each child’s learning experience by providing learning activities that cater to the students’ strengths, not by a one-size-fits-all learning approach.
- Testing at Legacy:
Testing at Legacy School is quite different than other schools in the Omaha area. Other schools deliver the material and then test the students to see if they “got it”. At Legacy School, we test the students first to determine their strengths and weaknesses. Then, we deliver the material through differentiated instruction, allowing the student to learn on their level at their own pace.
- The reputation of Legacy School:
Legacy School was founded in 2008. Due to the exponential growth of the school, formally located on 168th and Blondo, a new school was built on 168th and Ida. This upcoming school year, Legacy School will be celebrating 12 years of educating students.
- The Facilities:
Legacy School is situated on 11 acres of land, allowing for outdoor experiences for all students. Children learn in an environment that is surrounded by a barnyard that contains both chickens and goats, a farm to table garden, a baseball and soccer field, an obstacle course, and much more.
- The role the Parent Plays:
Legacy School believes parents are a child’s first and most important teachers. Because of this philosophy, Legacy School offers a variety of ways for parents to become involved (Parent-Teacher Conferences, Family Events, Read Alouds, Field Trips, Room Parents, School Carnival, and much more).
With so many area private schools to chose from in Omaha, we wish you the best to find the right fit for you and your family.
