LEGACY NATIONALLY RECOGNIZED FOR SUCCESS IN 2018
December 7, 2018: The National Association of ESEA State Program Administrators (NAESPA) is pleased to announce that Legacy Charter School from Nampa, Idaho, has been named a National ESEA Distinguished School by the state education agency in Idaho. Legacy is one of up to 100 schools throughout the country that is being nationally recognized for exceptional student achievement in 2018.
A project of the NAESPA, the National ESEA Distinguished Schools Program publicly recognizes qualifying federally funded schools for the outstanding academic achievements of their students. It highlights the efforts of schools across the country making significant improvements for their students. The program has been in place since 1996, showcasing the success of hundreds of schools in one of three categories:
• Category 1: Exceptional student performance for two consecutive years
• Category 2: Closing the achievement gap between student groups
• Category 3: Excellence in serving special populations of students
The Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA) provides additional resources for vulnerable students and federal grants to state educational agencies to improve the quality of public elementary and secondary education.
The Association is a membership organization made up of State ESEA Program Administrators, and their staff from each of the states and territories, charged with managing their state federal education program. They ensure compliance with federal regulations, but more importantly work to see that all children — especially those living in economically disadvantaged conditions — have the opportunity to receive a high quality education.
NAESPA implements the National ESEA Distinguished Schools Program to highlight selected schools that have successfully used their ESEA federal funds to improve the education for all students–including economically disadvantaged students. More information about all National ESEA Distinguished Schools is available on the ESEA Network website: www.ESEAnetwork.org.

Legacy's Educational Program:
The Harbor School Method™
Legacy is committed to duplicating the highly successful educational model founded by Liberty Charter School in Nampa, and replicated by its Nampa sister school, Victory Charter School. This educational program, the Harbor School Method™, centers on the belief that education should be child-centered and built on high expectations for both student behavior and academic endeavor. In a Harbor School, decisions on every level are based on the question, “What’s best for kids?” The method also proactively sets up an environment that allows students to focus on learning, while in a safe and secure setting.
