Another vote for Legacy Charter School! Our son is currently enrolled in their K5 program, and it’s been a wonderful experience! The academics are top-notch; the teachers are qualified, professional, communicative, and passionate; and physical activity is incorporated throughout the day to keep the kids active and engaged. They also offer an after-school program that is purposeful, providing help with homework and structured activity. One note worth mentioning is that, since the school doesn’t run on the same schedule as Greenville County, it’s sometimes challenging to find alternative childcare during school breaks and holidays.
