Legacy Early College H S

Legacy Early College H S earns a composite score of 9.2 out of 10 — rated Exceptional — placing it 17th among 1,699 Texas high schools. That ranking puts Legacy ahead of 98% of all public schools in the state, a striking result for a school of just 122 students. Academic performance anchors the rating.

Legacy scores 9.6 out of 10 on academics, the strongest sub-score in its Exceptional composite. Growth follows at 8.6 out of 10, indicating students make meaningful gains year over year — not just arrive with advantages. The 13.6-to-1 student-teacher ratio keeps classes small, giving students direct access to instructors at a level most Texas high schools cannot match.

Within Taylor, Legacy stands first among all six public schools in the city. Statewide, it sits at 144th out of 8,547 public schools — a position that reflects consistent output, not a single strong testing cycle. For families evaluating high schools in and around Taylor, Legacy's combination of small enrollment, high academic scores, and strong growth trajectory is difficult to find elsewhere in Texas.

With an enrollment of 122 students, Legacy Early College H S is a smaller school where families often find a close-knit community atmosphere. Smaller settings can mean more individual attention from teachers and staff, though they may offer fewer extracurricular options than larger schools.
