Primary School

A developmentally aligned curriculum offers an inquiry-based, thematic, experiential approach to engage all your child’s senses while uncovering individual strengths and interests. Children do hands-on science from day one, learning to make predictions, conduct experiments, and analyze results. Through block play, they learn problem solving, critical thinking, and math concepts such as counting, spatial awareness, geometry, and sequencing.

The beautiful Castle Room in our library is designed to nourish children’s love of reading. Students frequently visit the Castle Room to learn the responsibilities of checking out books and make reading an essential part of their daily lives.

Classes with specialists in music, physical education, and Spanish start in preschool, with art and technology instruction integrated into daily class work. Classes with art and technology specialists begin in kindergarten. Your child grows in versatility, curiosity, perception, self-regulation, and physical confidence from day one.

Wide-ranging performance and public-speaking opportunities help your child build poise and self-presentation skills from the start. And through dramatic play, students learn conflict resolution, cooperation, compromise, and abstract thinking while reinforcing skills in literacy, math, and social studies.

Our Big Buddy Program, pairing kindergartners with eighth-graders, provides an inspiring role model for your child and fosters a growing friendship. And before you know it, your child is a big buddy, exchanging roles and now serving as the leader.

Frequent field trips bring classroom learning to life and fuel your child’s curiosity about the wider world. The nation’s capital is practically another Langley classroom. Traveling by bus to a world center of government and culture, witnessing firsthand the places and processes they’ve learned about in class, children thrill to this exceptional learning opportunity.

Developmentally appropriate spaces and high-school caliber facilities energize your child and spark ambition. Our preschool-centric playground and tricycle track encourage your child to learn through play, while enhancing fine and gross motor skills. And access to Langley’s state-of-the-art facilities, including the arts center, athletic center, turf field, library, computer labs, and classroom in the sky—a beautiful rooftop space with four classroom areas surrounded by a green roof—inspire children to envision and work toward their educational future.
