Principal's Message 

Langley families, 

We've had a great week at Langley. It was wonderful to return to a normal routine. It's hard to believe we're already halfway through February. I want to share that we’ve experienced several close calls and a few minor vehicle accidents in our parking lots over the past few weeks. Please follow our kiss-and-ride pattern each morning and drop your students off at Door #14. Dropping off in the parking lot or at Door #1 is not allowed, as both create dangerous conditions for students upon arrival. Greeting everyone each morning is a highlight of my day.

Additionally, on Wednesday, February 18, 2026, we will start closing the two-way avenue that allows vehicles to bypass the front of the parking lot and access the rear. This closure will be in effect from 8:30 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. each school day. We believe this change will also enhance overall traffic safety in our parking lot. The avenue will stay open during arrival and dismissal times
