What Parents Ask Us

Frequently Asked Questions

Clear answers about eligibility, testing, daily support, and how to apply — so you can make an informed decision for your child.

Eligibility & Enrollment

Does LCA have programs for children with learning differences?

Yes. The Legacy Learning Center provides support for diagnosed neurodiverse learners — including dyslexia, ADHD, and other language-based learning differences. Students receive accommodations and specialized services within the full LCA school experience.

Does my child need to be enrolled at LCA before applying to the LLC?

The LLC application is for current LCA families and applicants. If you are new to Legacy and interested in the LLC, please let Admissions know of your interest, and they will connect with you on next steps.

What learning differences does the LLC support?

We support students with qualifying neurodiverse diagnoses — commonly dyslexia, dysgraphia, dyscalculia, ADHD, auditory processing, and other diagnosed learning differences — who have a documented functional limitation and educational need for accommodations or specialized instruction.

Will my child be separated from their classmates?

Students receive individualized support through a combination of classroom accommodations, small-group instruction, and strategic interventions designed to minimize time away from core classroom learning.

Testing & Documentation

What testing is required for LLC enrollment?

Students must have a diagnosed learning difference and a comprehensive educational evaluation that documents their educational needs and supports eligibility for LLC services.

How recent must testing be?

Testing must be completed within the last three years. This is required by LCA and also aligns with ACT/SAT accommodation requirements for upper school students planning for college.

Can LLC staff recommend evaluators?

Yes. Current LCA families may choose to work with our educational diagnostician or seek an evaluation from one of the trusted outside evaluators we recommend. We're happy to help you determine which option is the best fit for your family. Contact Holly Hammond or your division LLC director to discuss your child's situation before scheduling an evaluation. Learn more about Diagnostic Services.

Daily Support & Programs

What accommodations might my child receive?

Accommodations are individualized based on documented need. Examples include extended time, digital resources such as text to speech, note-taking support, quiet testing room, etc. Services and accommodations facilitate growth in learning awareness, self-advocacy, and organizational habits.

What is Take Flight dyslexia therapy?

Take Flight is LCA's evidence-based dyslexia therapy curriculum. It covers phonemic awareness, phonics, vocabulary, fluency, and reading comprehension through multisensory, structured instruction. Students attend five 45-minute sessions per week during the school day. Learn more about dyslexia therapy at LCA.

Is there support for Spanish Immersion students?

Yes. The Esperanza program provides Spanish literacy intervention for students in our Spanish Immersion program using a multisensory, structured approach. Current research supports remediation in both languages for students with dyslexia. Contact Bernadette Rodriguez for Spanish Immersion LLC questions, or Kristina Stockton for Early Learning Campus and Lower School LLC support. Explore Esperanza.

Why choose LCA dyslexia therapy over private therapy?

At LCA, Take Flight is delivered during the school day (five times per week), therapists collaborate directly with classroom teachers, and the full curriculum is completed, typically in 2.5–3 years. Private therapy often competes with after-school activities, may use modified curricula, and may not align with LCA classroom expectations.

Applying & Contact

How do we apply to the Legacy Learning Center?

If you are a current family, complete the LLC application online. You'll provide student information, testing dates, and responses to parent and student questions that help our team understand your child's needs. Submission of current psycho-educational testing is required.

Who should I contact with questions?

For Early Learning Campus/Lower School LLC questions, contact Kristina Stockton at kristina.stockton@legacyca.com. For Middle School/Upper School LLC questions, contact Eileen Richardson at eileen.richardson@legacyca.com.
