"Best decision we ever made for our son."

"My 10th grader (son) came to us toward the end of his 9th grade year and wanted to get info on this new “Charter “ school in Rock Hill. We did some research and after speaking with the principal, we as a family decided to give it shot. We are quickly approaching winter break and I have to say that he loves the classes, the teachers are engaged and the athletic staff is top notch ! We are in a temporary building and the football season was difficult (lots of travel and tons of misinformation from some naysayers) but when asked if we would do it again the answer is 100% yes. #LegionLancers Misinformation Legion is not a private school ! It’s public and doesn’t cost any extra to attend . Charter schools recruit players from local teams. FALSE !! Coaches and staff of the school are not allowed to recruit and fall under the same SCHSL rules as every other school. Legion is only for athletes. FALSE Legion is for any and all students athletes or not . All of our athletes were kicked off of their original sports team and we are a “Last Chance U” for high school sports . FALSE ! Most of the athletes at legion were starters and in good educational standings before they transferred. The students wanted a school that was smaller, safe and provided a unique curriculum with dual enrollment opportunities for athletes and students. With the backing of Erskine Collage all of the students that graduate form any SC charter school will be given a one hundred thousand dollar scholarship to attend Erskine. Combined with the dual enrollment most of these kids will have 2 full years of collage completed in high school and a free collage education waiting at graduation. TRUE"
