Fall Musical "Disney's Beauty and the Beast"
One of Disney’s most well-known movies, which has captivated audiences since 1991, was turned into a staged musical in November 1993. This classic story tells of Belle, a young woman in a provincial town, and the Beast, who is really a young prince trapped under the spell of an enchantress. If the Beast can learn to love and be loved, the curse will end and he will be transformed into his former self. But time is running out. If the Beast does not learn his lesson soon, he and his household will be doomed for all eternity.

Ned will provide tools for fostering close connections, navigating tough conversations, and helping teens feel grounded, understood and resilient. Purchase your tickets here.
Donate to the PTSA
Donate to the PTSA! The PTSA depends on donations from our families to provide the programming and school support for this year. The PTSA budget relies on families donating $125 per student. If you have yet to donate this year, please do so here. Already this year, the PTSA has held social events for our students to help build community, like the Tailgate and Trivia Tournament. PTSA has hosted events to show our wonderful Langley staff how much their work with our students is appreciated, to include the Welcome Back Breakfast and Fall Appreciation Lunch. PTSA has supported the academic and artistic pursuits of our students including buying books for the English department, sponsoring the Robotics Club, and supporting the performing arts. We have many more events planned this year, but we need the financial support of our families to make these programs and sponsorships possible! Please donate! The link can be found on our website, ptsalangley.org, or donate directly here
