About this school

Public choice option that is not guaranteed by address and generally depends on district choice or broader application rules.

Legacy School of the Arts is an arts-themed middle school in Brooklyn. Our vision is to instill a love for learning by placing the learner at the center of everything we do in order to promote self-confidence, thoughtful decision-making, and academic and social growth. We provide a positive and supportive learning environment that challenges students to think, explore, and create as they connect rigorous academic experiences with robust arts education while including choices such as sports and computer science. At Legacy School of the Arts, students receive individualized instruction whether they are learning disabled or a part of our Gifted and Talented program. Legacy students are exposed to a variety of the arts in grade 6, such as visual art, dance, theater (including a Broadway show), and music. In grades 7 and 8, our students will focus their study on an art of their choosing to further develop their individual skills. At Legacy School of the Arts, we believe that social-emotional development is as important as academic development; all students will be part of a small group advisory led by their mentor. We encourage our students to be future oriented and mindful of their impact on the world. At LSA, we ask ourselves daily: "What's Your Legacy?"
