parking tags
Paperwork for the "Student Parking Hang Tag Applications for the Academic Year 2013-2014" and the "Langley High School Parking Rules and Regulations" will be available Mon, May 13, and must be turned in to Mr. Rogers in the Security Office or Mrs. Myren in the Main Office no later than Fri, May 24, with no exceptions!
Parking Hang Tags will be issued to rising Seniors and to a limited number of rising Juniors, all of whom must meet the deadline in submitting appropriate forms, have acceptable academic performance and attendance records, and have no disciplinary infractions. Juniors will be selected by lottery, and there will be no Sophomore parking available. All drivers must be registered with Langley HS. Your student's application will not be accepted unless ALL of the information is completed on BOTH sides of the form. Rising Seniors must understand that parking is not an automatic entitlement, and ALL students must comply with the deadline!
Important Special Notice to All Juniors with or without Hang Tags for the 2013-2014 School Year:
Unpaid parking tickets from the 2012-2013 school year must be paid-in-full by Monday, May 13, 2013. Failure to do so will result in towing and not receiving your Senior Hang Tag until October of the 2013-2014 school year.

crew: Congratulations go out to Langley's Novice Men's eight-seat, which won the Virginia State High School Crew Championship for their category on Saturday at the Ted Phoenix regatta. The class the men rowed in was one of the most competitive. The men had to row twice, and their morning heat was against some of the best boats in the state. With only two boats from each heat advancing, winning second in the heat was an accomplishment itself. With a strong start in the afternoon final, Langley took an early lead and maintained it, winning the 1500 meter race. The winning boat's rowers were Wyatt Child, Laith Alsaif, Luke Bulkeley, Tony Lee, Sergei Stratos, Chris Rossberg, Patrick Muir, Tucker Grim, Justin Meeker. Their coach was Matt Fanny.
