Legacy Educational Center is a small licensed facility on Highway 304 in Bastrop, Texas, serving children from 6 weeks through school age. It maintains an exceptional Grade A safety rating (98.5/100) with zero high-severity HHSC deficiencies—among the strongest records in the area—while accepting child-care subsidies to serve working families. Operating from 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM with a licensed capacity of 56, the center serves infants, toddlers, preschoolers, and school-age children through age-based programs. As a newer entrant to the Bastrop market, it has limited public review presence; its Highway 304 location may not be convenient for all families in the area.
