"We chose Legacy because we wanted our children to love learning, to desire to excel in every academic area and to strive to be lifelong learners in a school where they would be educated through a Biblical world view. Not only does the staff and faculty at LCA seek to challenge our children academically, they genuinely desire to know our children. Our loving, tender-hearted teachers have come along side us to train the hearts and minds of our children as we strive to do the same at home. Beyond the walls of the classroom, our children are encouraged to serve selflessly in our local community and to think of others before themselves. Our children love going to school every day and come home eager to share the excitement that is contagious in their classrooms. We love our Legacy family and are blessed to be a part of such an incredible school. Legacy has been an incredible blessing to our family over the past eight years." The Gleesons

SCVi Accepting Enrollment Applications for Spring & Fall 2018
Santa Clarita Valley International is ringing in the new year with a reminder for families of prospective students that the tuition-free public charter school is accepting enrollment applications for this spring and for the fall 2018 enrollment lottery.
Limited spots remain available for the spring at SCVi, the founding campus of iLEAD Schools, offering learner-centered education in grades TK through 12.
iLEAD Schools uniquely emphasize methods that foster social-emotional development. A cornerstone of SCVi's philosophy is project-based learning, an innovative, research-based method of instruction that requires students to tackle deeply-engaging projects about real-world issues. For learners in upper grades, an academic and college counselor works with each student to create a plan to help them succeed.
SCVi is the only local school to offer the rigorous International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma Programme for juniors and seniors. SCVi also offers Innovation Studios, a hybrid learning opportunity for sixth through 12th grades that leverages technological and human resources.
The school offers a high-quality arts and theatre program for all grades and recently welcomed veteran educator and acclaimed actor Ian Johnston to direct iLEAD's International Baccalaureate theatre program.
Sports are offered from kindergarten through 12th grade, with Upper School teams participating in the CIF Omega League. Sports include basketball, soccer, flag football, volleyball, cross country, softball, baseball, golf and equestrian. Renowned coach Ken Erenberg recently joined SCVi as athletic director.
