Student Onboarding
Hello and welcome to Legend! We are happy to have you join our Legend family. As we prepare for the upcoming term, we would like to keep you abreast of the school’s procedures, policies, and expectations for the class(es) ahead. The administration here is to support you to achieve successful results as well as a positive learning experience.

Please ensure that your student checks their personal email frequently for class communications.
Most classes will use the Canvas platform for class activities. Account details will be provided in the welcome email.
Once class starts, parents will receive a progress update from the teacher every two weeks.
Readiness Assessment
Assessments will be online and Zoom proctored.
Returning Legend students may be allowed to use the completed prerequisite course final as an assessment equivalent. Returning students may need teacher or department chair recommendations.
Canvas Platform Access
If the student has a Legend Canvas account already, they can log in with their usual credentials. For new students to create a Canvas account, please visit https://legendcp.instructure.com/login/canvas. Please use the student email address as the username and create your password. Follow these steps to access class conferences. These details will also be listed in your welcome email.
Textbook / e-book Access
Upon completion of your registration, a separate email will be sent to the student with instructions on accessing e-codes or student e-book accounts. Those e-codes or accounts are only valid in connection with Legend and cannot be transferred. The e-book cost is already included in the total enrollment fee. Once the e-code or account is activated the textbook can be accessed by the student for up to a year. If the class requires a physical (paper) textbook, the student is responsible for purchasing the text and make sure it’s the correct edition.
Fostering a Positive Learning Environment
Attendance
Absences and Tardies
Students missing more than 30 minutes of class without prior arrangement will be equivalent to one absence.
Students missing more than 15 min of class for 3 classes without prior arrangement will be equivalent to one absence.
Students with 2 unexcused absences during a semester will be placed on probation and may be deemed unfit for a group course commitment. Private make-up classes may be required with additional fees. Students may also be subject to being dropped without a refund or switched to a 1:1 course arrangement requiring corresponding tuition.
Participation and Conduct
Legend students will be expected to follow these general rules. Individual teachers may have additional rules specific to their own classes. Students are expected to bring all necessary materials for every session, including the textbook, notebook, calculator, laptop, etc. as required by the teacher.
Cell phones must be turned off unless explicitly permitted by the instructor. No cell phones will be allowed during tests or quizzes. Chatting among students must be kept to a minimum and only if permitted by the teacher.
Students must adhere to instructor-specific rules such as turning on the camera or unmuting whenever requested or required. Cell phones must be turned off during class unless explicitly permitted by the instructor. No cell phones will be allowed during tests or quizzes.
Students who fail to fulfill the minimum requirements expected by their teachers may require a review from the corresponding department chair and/or academic dean. A meeting with parents will be scheduled to discuss a solution. Students who fail repeatedly to meet conduct and/or academic standards may be placed on academic probation or suspension. Students caught cheating or participating in acts of academic dishonesty may face academic suspension and receive an automatic F for the class. If the academic suspension is necessary, the student will be dismissed from the class and school without a refund or transcripts.
Requesting Transcripts
Upon completion of a UC a-g approved course, students may request official and unofficial transcripts through the Legend website. Only a-g, Honors and AP classes will be listed on the transcript (high school level classes). Please allow at least 1 week after the completion of class before ordering transcripts to allow time to get grades properly recorded. Transcripts are cumulative and will list all the students’ classes taken for credit.
The most widely accepted and time-efficient way to send official transcripts is electronically directly to the high school or college that is requesting them. Hard copies can be mailed to your home for your personal records.
Complete transcript requests must be submitted online through our website, www.legendcp.com. Under the “transcripts” tab, click on “Online Transcript Request”. This is the direct link: www.legendcp.com/transcriptrequest
Complete the request form and payment information on the second page. Once the request is received, the transcript department will email an unofficial copy to the parent email provided. FOR OFFICIAL TRANSCRIPTS, please verify that all the information on the emailed copy is correct or provide corrected information within 24 hours. Official copies will be processed 5-7 days from the day of accuracy approval. Rush requests will require additional fees.
Legend College Preparatory reserves the right to withhold processing of official transcripts for non-payment of tuition, school fees, or missing student documentation (outside transcripts).
If you have any questions regarding transcript processing, please email transcript@legendcp.com
