For students who have a support IEP, Medical 504 Plan, or are an English Language Learner, they automatically qualify for LeGare. This is an advocacy process that allows students an EQUAL opportunity to apply and attend a Special Admission High School. This advocacy process is only applicable to 8th Graders who are headed into 9th grade.

Please understand that LeGare does not guarantee admission into a Special Admission School. Students who fall into the LeGare bucket must still meet or come close to the admissions criteria of the Special Admission School and the school must be able to provide reasonable accommodations for the student to be successful. All without substantially altering the way the curriculum is delivered at the school.
