Principal's Message 

FCPS will implement an updated cellphone policy in accordance with Virginia law (SB108).

For high school students, cellphones and other personal smart devices—including smartwatches, earbuds, headphones, smart glasses, and other internet-connected devices—must be off and stored away during the entire school day, including lunch.

Devices should be kept in a backpack, purse, locker, or pouch during the school day.

Students and families are encouraged to review the full policy and learn more about what to expect for the upcoming school year on the FCPS Cellphone Policy. The biggest change for us will be the removal of the lunch period for phone use.

FCPS School Board updates personal device policy! The FCPS Chromebook will be the primary student device and school supply for the 2026 - 2027 school year. 

In addition to the updated cellphone policy, the FCPS School Board has approved a new policy prohibiting the use of personal electronic devices during the instructional day, including personal laptops, tablets, smartphones, and smartwatches. Students will use FCPS-issued devices for school-related digital learning.

Students must bring their school-issued Chromebook to school each day. FCPS Chromebooks have everything students need for their work here at Langley. The FCPS Chromebook is the required device for our classrooms. Students should leave personal devices at home.

Thank you so much for your support. We truly appreciate your partnership.

 

Senior Parking Application

Senior students and families should have received an email last week with parking application instructions, regulations, and process dates. We do not expect many, if any, spaces to be available for Juniors this year. Your student will need to log in to their FCPS account to access. Notification of approved applications will begin by email on Thursday, 13 August. This notification will be sent to the students' FCPS email accounts. It will detail the pick-up time/instructions. 

 

School Supplies 

When picking up school supplies for the 2026 - 2027 school year, please keep in mind that we will continue with our Open Gate Weapons screening each day. When purchasing organizational items, please purchase Plastic Three-Ring Binders so that students can leave these in their backpacks. 

The school-use items listed below are also highly encouraged:

  • Non-Metal Water Bottles 
  • Non-Metal Pencil Cases 
  • Non-Metal Lunch Boxes 
  • Non-Metal Glasses Cases 
 

Bell Schedule 

Thank you for your feedback in helping us get to a schedule that works best for our students and staff. With the elimination of our embedded period, we will be on a full block schedule. Here is our bell schedule moving forward.
