A MESSAGE FROM DR. HARRISON
Hello Legacy Families!
Our Legacy Swag Store is currently open now through next Wednesday 10/18. See below for details as well as a shopping link. This is a great opportunity to load up on a variety of Legacy gear including shirts, jackets, sweats, and more!
If you have not already, we encourage you to register for the upcoming Dino Dash. This is an excellent community event, benefitting TUSD and our school. $10 from every registration (including sponsoring a Runnership) will go directly back to our school. We have been the highest participating school for MS/HS the last two years, and we plan to keep that title! Join us on Sunday 11/6!
Enjoy your weekend. See you all next week!
