Finding Ways to Build Community

1. Primary School students returned to campus for the first day of school on September 2 as planned, while older grades staggered their return until all students were on campus by mid-October.

2. Students, faculty, and staff celebrated Founder’s Day on September 22 as they marked Langley’s 78th birthday.

3. To allow the school time to become familiar with our new campus safety protocols, the Middle School began the year in distance learning. During this time, students in grades 6-8 enjoyed several on-campus meetups to help them reconnect with teachers and classmates through outdoor fun and games.

4. While parents cannot gather on campus this year, PALS developed several creative ways to build community virtually and keep parents connected. In addition to a virtual speaker series, PALS also organized virtual parent socials to help parents get to know one another while competing in friendly team trivia.

Keeping Langley’s Traditions Alive

5. Langley welcomed several visiting authors and illustrators for virtual presentations and workshops with students of all ages this fall, including Brian Yanish, who showed students how to make their own monster puppet from recycled materials.

6. Middle School advisories continued their tradition of the Halloween door-decorating contest as they came up with creative ideas to decorate classroom doors in the Middle School. 7. Kindergartners enjoyed a morning of fitness during their annual Games Day which featured four outdoor stations and plenty of fun.

8. While many Langley traditions look different this year, our much-anticipated celebration of Halloween continued with minor modifications. Students and teachers dressed up in creative costumes and took part in socially distanced parades around campus.
