Legacy Traditional School - Peoria

The Legacy Traditional School – Peoria is the only school in this area, serving grades K–8 with 609 students and a reported student–teacher ratio of 22.5:1; its free/reduced-lunch rate is not reported. Its all-grades proficiency is well above the state rate in both tested subjects: 64% in English language arts (ELA) versus 41% statewide, and 57% in math versus 33%. The most important finding is that the school exceeds the state rate by 23 percentage points in ELA and 24 points in math.

There is no group of schools to rank at the top or bottom, so this school is the sole standout rather than a peer-ranked leader. Its grade-level results for grades 3–6 are also above state rates in both subjects: ELA gaps range from 20 to 30 percentage points, while math gaps range from 11 to 35 points. Grade 4 is strongest in the reported math results, with 75% proficient versus 40% statewide; grade 6 is the lowest, at 41% versus 30%. ELA varies less across grades 3–6, from 60% to 77% proficient. Grade 5 science was 45% versus 34% statewide, but that result is from 2024–2025, not the year of the ELA and math results.

SchoolDigger’s ranking history shows a stronger statewide percentile position over time, rising from 79 in 2023–2024 to 85 in 2025–2026, with a 4-star rating throughout; its reported rank improved from 188 of 912 to 134 of 900. This is a change in SchoolDigger’s relative ranking, not evidence that test scores increased. The school’s ratio and enrollment describe its profile, but there are no peer schools for comparison; grade 7 results are suppressed, and the lunch rate is blank.
