If groups of friends would like to coordinate their pickup times to sign each other’s yearbooks, the stadium and grounds are open.  The Langley building will not be open for anyone to enter other than Langley Staff specifically assigned to distribution.  Stadium restrooms will not be open.  We ask that each Graduate follow all health guidelines, including:

  • Bring your own pen (and do not share pens).  Bring extra pens for friends who may not be as prepared.

  • Wear a mask.

  • Maintain social distance, whenever possible.

Senior Car Parade

June 1st 
10:00am - Noon

The Class of 2020 parade was so fun and such a joy to watch.  Our seniors and their families are the heroes of the day.  They stepped up, decorated their cars, and figured out the path for a joyful afternoon.  We saw genuine smiles on the faces of our Seniors who earned the right to be celebrated, and we did just that.  We cannot thank Robin Svendsen enough for planning and holding such a wonderful event. 

Let’s commemorate the event with a video. 

Simply click on the link below and upload your photos and any video you took.

For those unable to participate, Sabrina Thomas created this collage of pictures taken in the Langley parking lot at the beginning of the parade.

If you have not received your refund, contact Debbie Myrendsmyren@fcps.edu

8. Mailing/Shipping items in General

Do NOT expect any organization (LHS, PTSA, FCPS, etc) to mail/ship any items to you or your Senior.  All items will be made available for pickup at Langley High School at various times (which are constantly changing).  Everyone understands this is not ideal and hopes to be as flexible/reasonable as possible.  Please reach out to friends and neighbors to assist your family, as needed.  Perhaps an enterprising Senior will create a business if there is a true need for shipping services.
