Legacy Academy of Smyrna

"My grandchildren attend this facility..the love for the children is as though they were their personal offspring. The professionalism w/educating & discipline & communication has far exceeded my expectations for a 3.5-4yr old. My only suggestion is to implement an art program whereas the children can act out their imaginations.,"

"I dont often leave reviews, but Legacy deserves the praise. I have had my children here since Jan 2023. It tells you a lot about the teachers and the school in general when your kids call you “Ms […]” when home. It lets me know that their teachers makes them feel safe and loved and that’s all a parent can ask for! With my eldest ive seen her gain so much confidence. The staff is also amazing and so kind. Drop offs and pick ups are not a quick thing because I find myself talking with all the staff. Truly am so grateful to have found Legacy and forever thankful for the love they give my babies!"

"Love love love the dedication, professionalism & general “vibe” at Legacy! My son started here right after I had a major surgery in August 2021 & everyone was so kind & cared. Fast forward 16 months later & we are still here because he loves it! Teachers are great and always receptive to parents feedback/questions. Its always clean, and inviting - everyone seems to enjoy working with each other which is very impressive. We appreciate you all at Legacy - keep up the gold standard!"

"I’m not one to call out places when I do not get my way so I will be clear to say that I am glad that we walked away from this place. The 3 year old teacher during the tour seemed amazing but the issue is with the director. When I called to inquire about openings in the 2.5-3 year old class the director told me they would have openings in February of 2023 for the 3 year old class. Another woman the previous day told me January. I was transparent and asked if the Academy was versed with autism being that my son would have his therapist there with him. The director immediately goes “yes we are but if they are violent causing self harm or harm to others we would have to have a conversation about that” Im sorry? Did I say anything at all about that behavior in my child? I quickly got her together with some education on how taking that talk track with parents of autistic children was 1. Offensive 2. Uneducated and 3. Unprofessional. She tried to act like she did not intended on “causing me harm” in which she did not, she just showed her judgment and bias against autistic children. After touring I thought I’d be able to put it behind me and 24 hours later I send my husband to drop off the application and pay the app fee and now they tell him they do not have availability until May-June? Strange. It must be Gods protection. While they have a few autistic kids there perhaps the director feels they have met their “quota?” Well this is what I’ll say. Ma’am, your clear bias against autistic children is despicable, I believe that you miss out on your blessings when you pre judge people they way that you did. Do better. And other families, take note. My child is super loving and cheerful and very smart far from violent I worry about other kids bullying HIM so to do us like that is wrong"

"Our infant attends daycare here and we're satisfied with his and our experiences. Like any new business, I have watched them go through some growing pains, but the safety and wellbeing of the children as well as the satisfaction of the parents has always been their utmost concern. The staff seems happy to be there and parents seem content with leaving their children. Our child does activities throughout the day and is lovingly taken care of. We are very happy to be a part of the Legacy family."
