Planning for College

Legacy offers an academic curriculum that adheres to Indiana  State Standards for Mathematics, English Language Arts, Social Studies, Science, Arts, Technology, and Physical Education. Students, beginning in Kindergarten, also study Arabic as a second language. Legacy’s Arabic department is in a constant process of review and refinement of the language curriculum, to ensure that students are not only able to read and understand Quranic Arabic, but are also proficient in Arabic written and oral communication for modern usage. Qur’an and Islamic Studies are two classes that are also taught everyday as extra-curriculum for every grade.

To meet the goal of Legacy students becoming high academic achievers, the school is persistent in its endeavor to seek and provide the best academic programs and curriculum materials for its students.

The school offers grades Pre-Kindergarten through 12th and welcomes all students who are inclined to learn in a welcoming Islamic environment and who have the desire to grow academically and be challenged.
