Summary

Legacy Charter School is a K-8 charter school in Nampa, ID, serving 311 students and operating as its own district, Legacy Public Charter School Inc., with an academic profile that places it among the top 6% of elementary and middle schools statewide.

Legacy's test scores are dramatically higher than those of nearby Nampa schools. On the most recent ISAT, 73.7% of Legacy students were proficient in math and 83.4% in English language arts—compared with state averages of 43.1% and 54%, respectively. The nearest school, Reagan Elementary School, posts just 38.6% math and 45.5% ELA proficiency. Even the strongest nearby performer, Lake Ridge Elementary, trails Legacy by roughly 27 points in math and 31 points in ELA. Legacy also maintains an exceptionally low chronic absenteeism rate of 2.3%, compared to 14.6% statewide and rates of 13%–29% at most neighboring schools. Notably, Legacy achieves these results with a much higher student-to-teacher ratio (24.8) than nearby schools (average ~16.6), suggesting its success comes from instructional approach and school culture rather than smaller class sizes.

Legacy serves a different demographic profile than many of its neighbors: 29.6% of students qualify for free/reduced lunch, while nearby schools average about 58.8%. Its performance remains strong through middle school, with eighth-grade math proficiency at 77.8% (state: 41.2%) and science at 80.8% (state: 42.9%). Compared to New Horizon Magnet School, the only other nearby K-8, Legacy is ahead by 39 points in math and 48 points in ELA. While Legacy has seen a slight recent dip in math and science scores, it remains far above the Nampa School District average, which ranks in the 16th percentile statewide. For parents prioritizing academic achievement and consistent attendance, Legacy stands out as a clear outlier in the Nampa area.
