Legacy Academics

Expert-Led Science Courses Built for Students Who Are Ready for More.

Complete, TEKS-aligned science courses for grades 6, 7, and 8 — designed for students preparing for Credit by Exam, completing homeschool coursework, or accelerating beyond grade level.

What Makes a Legacy Academics Course Different

Complete Courses

Students receive structured instruction across the full grade-level science curriculum rather than isolated tutoring or test review.

Expert Instructors

Every course is taught by a credentialed, experienced science educator with strong content knowledge.

Live Online Sessions

Real-time instruction in a structured, interactive virtual classroom with a only a small group of students.

Flexible Sessions

Choose Fall or Spring enrollment. Two opportunities per year to start.

Who does Legacy Academics Serve

Students preparing for Credit by Examination

Students seeking enrichment

Advanced learners ready for additional challenge

Students building stronger science foundations

Homeschool and independent learners

Students do not need to be pursuing CBE to enroll in Legacy Academics.

Our Current Courses

Biology EOC Mastery

A comprehensive 20-week program designed for any student interested in Biology, but is particularly designed for 9th graders want to strengthen content knowledge, close learning gaps, and build confidence for the Texas Biology End of Course (EOC) Exam.


Students receive structured, TEKS-aligned instruction across the major Biology concepts tested on the EOC with an emphasis on understanding, application, scientific reasoning, and EOC-style practice.

October 2026 - march 2027   

20 Weeks

Course Includes
  • Comprehensive Biology content review
  • TEKS-aligned instruction
  • EOC-style questions and application
  • Data analysis, models & scientific reasoning
  • Weekly mastery checks and targeted practice
  • Support from an experienced, certified science educator

This course runs 20 weeks - four weeks longer than our standard 16-week sessions - to ensure full content coverage before the April EOC exam window.

Texas EOC Testing Window:

April 13-24, 2027
