Legacy Academy Warrior Day 2022
On Friday, Legacy Academy held three great events – Warrior Day, the Ashlee Fisk Benefit Dinner, and Navy-White Night. Warrior Day, a day set aside to celebrate shool spirit and build school community, saw the whole school come together to play games and compete during the school day, showing off our school Warrior Spirit. A benefit dinner was put on for the whole community of Lockesburg to raise money for Ashlee Fisk, a long-term teacher at Legacy Academy, who has been battling cancer this year – over $14,000 has been raised so far! To finish the night, our basketball teams started their seasons with scrimmages, shooting competitions, and the annual Legends v. Warriors game.
Warrior Day was packed full of competitions all day: races, dodgeball, a dance off, the teacher door-decorating contest, and more. The day is all about our school community building friendships and having fun. We work hard AND we play hard, and Friday’s festivities are but one example of that!
Ashlee Fisk has been a teacher at Legacy Academy for 13 years, one of our longest serving faculty, and it, therefore, is a joy for us to do whatever we can in gratitude of her faithfulness and commitment to the school as she battles cancer. The Fisks are well known and loved by the city of Lockesburg and the event showed that in abundance as people flocked to the Legacy Auditorium for the Benefit Dinner to bid on the silent auction items, enjoy a chicken dinner, and donate towards her expenses.
Navy-White night was the capstone of the day, where our Warrior and Lady Warrior basketball teams took to the court for the first time for the season. Fans and families packed the stands to cheer on the teams as they scrimmaged. The evening ended with our teams each playing the Legends and Lady Legends, parents, teachers and alumni of the school, doing their very best to show the youngsters that they still have what it takes!.
The day as a whole was a celebration of being Joyfully Different! We are an Unashamedly Christian private school that celebrates community, virtue, honor, and excellence in all things.
