August Newsletter 2026: A Strong Summer for Legacy Scholars

Read how Legacy scholars explored careers, presented business ideas, connected with family, and strengthened their confidence this summer.

This summer, Legacy scholars explored new interests, strengthened their confidence, and built meaningful connections. From career activities to family engagement, each experience gave our young people opportunities to learn, create, and lead.

August Highlights

  • Career Exploration: Scholars completed two weeks of hands-on learning, including a visit to Mozz & Co. and creative activities.
  • Business Pitches: Camp concluded with Shark Tank-style presentations, where scholars shared original ideas with confidence and professionalism.
  • Family Connection: Our Parent Walk brought families together for movement, conversation, and quality time.
  • Scholar Spotlight: Athalia attended the Miss Porter’s School Summer Program, where she participated in academic discussions and collaborative projects.
  • Between Worlds: This new program will help girls examine digital messages, express their identities, build confidence, and connect with supportive peers.
