2026-2027 Integrity Class Shirts

All Legacy students (K-12) receive a class t-shirt for their grade level. These shirts may be worn on Fridays, for class field trips, and for other class events. Before July 26 (deadline!), please select the grade level and correctly sized shirt for your child(ren) in this online student store HERE. Be sure to checkout after selecting your shirt(s). You will add your name to your order in checkout, but there will not be a cost. Class shirts will be shipped to the school and distributed there.

Every year we receive requests from parents and grandparents who want to purchase additional shirts for themselves! So, we have partnered with Trophy Sports to provide this opportunity. At this link HERE (a different online store than above), you may purchase additional shirts, and they can be picked up at Trophy Sports Center here in Xenia or shipped to the address you provide.

2026-2027 Student and Family Handbook

The Student and Family Handbook has been updated in some areas for 2026-2027, including: attendance policy, an artificial intelligence policy, and Academic Warning and Probation policy. The handbook is available on our website HERE as both an embedded document and a pdf. A summary description of significant changes can be found HERE.

FinalForms - Sign your Back-to-School Forms

Back-to-school forms must be completed annually for every enrolled student in grades Kindergarten through 12. Legacy uses FinalForms to support this process. Please complete your back-to-school forms HERE before August 12, 2026. HERE is a step-by-step document with detailed instructions.

For returning families, most forms should pre-populate with data based on last year's forms. New families will need to make a new Parent account and complete the process for each child enrolled. Additionally, students in grades 6-12 will need to use their Student account to sign some forms themselves.

FALL SPORTS REMINDER: Legacy uses FinalForms for athletic forms as well as back-to-school forms and some mid-year permission slips. FinalForms must be complete, including a current sports physical, before any student athlete may participate in a fall athletic tryout, practice or contest.

We want you! – Submit your Volunteer Application today

Service is the heartbeat of Legacy. Parents and other community members contribute thousands of hours of service each school year, and our students benefit from your generosity! With student safety in mind, all volunteers (including parents/guardians) must complete an annual volunteer application with a background check. There is a $6 online fee for the background check. Would you take a moment, right now, and complete your volunteer application HERE so you are available to serve throughout the 2026-2027 school year as opportunities arise? Please contact Ashley Harrison for more information.
