Time:    1-1:30pm meeting

Returning LHS Students Open House 

As we look forward to returning to 5-days in person this fall, we realize that some of you have not been in the building for quite some time!  In an effort to help mitigate those 1st day jitters, we are providing an opportunity for all students to navigate the hallways and find your classes.  We look forward to seeing then!

Families, We Need Your Consent for Select Digital Resources

At Langley, our teachers will use a variety of digital resources to support student learning and promote communication and collaboration with students and families. Some of the digital resources your child may use this year will require your consent before they can be used. You can find our school’s list of the resources that require parental consent here: https://langleyhs.fcps.edu/adopteddigitalresources Additionally, you can find more information about approved digital resources in FCPS here: https://www.fcps.edu/resources/technology/digital-resources.

 

Included on this page is also a link to a form where the enrolling parent or guardian will need to indicate whether or not their student is allowed to use the list of digital resources this year. This page also provides more information about how FCPS carefully reviews digital resources for approval and why we must request your consent before using certain tools. We encourage you to complete the parental consent for digital resources form as soon as possible, as your child will not be able to use the digital resources until we have received your permission. Please reach out to your child’s teachers if you have questions or concerns about the digital resources we’ve chosen to use this year.

Student Intention Forms for 2021-2022 - Only for those families NOT attending/returning.

We need your help in projecting our total enrollment for this school year.  For families NOT attending/returning to Langley HS in the fall of 2021 - 2022, please complete and return the “Student’s Intention for the Next School Year” to Mary Gratz at mjgratz@fcps.edu

A typed parent/guardian name on the Parent Signature line is acceptable.  Student ID Number may be left blank.  Save the completed form, attach it to an email and send at MJGratz@fcps.edu.
