Engaging Video with Gold Overlay
The soft golden overlay for the video, which is also contained in a narrow white border, brings out the deeper yellow lion in the logo and gives a cohesive feel to the homepage, solidifying Legacy's school brand. The text overlay addresses the website's three main audiences, prospective students, prospective faculty and potential donors with calls-to-action that do not distract from the video but are easily accessible for visitors to continue their journey.

Mobile-First Menu
The charter school's mobile-first design has drop-down navigation for easy access to all main pages and subpages, as well as the links to the most-visited pages like the Calendar, News and Portal login screen.
