The ongoing goal of Summer Session in the Langley School District is to provide short-term educational opportunities for students to support them in their long-term educational development, and to inspire them to reach their full potential. Every year, Summer Session provides an opportunity for grade 1-12 students from Langley and neighbouring regions to explore areas of interest, get extra help, and stay connected with their learning during the summer.

  • How to Register

    Online registration will be available for all students and is the quickest way to complete the initial registration.

    As noted above, for students not currently enrolled in School District #35, proof of address in British Columbia is required.

  • International Students Registration

    Secondary international students already registered in the Langley School District must contact their International Student Program (ISP) Coordinator at their current school before registering in Summer Session classes.

  • Elementary/Middle Courses

    Explorations classes are intended for students who want to explore in depth a subject that interests them, and improve their knowledge and understanding.

    Skill Builder classes are intended for students who are not currently at grade level or would benefit from extra time in a subject to improve their skills and confidence.

    Please Note: Students are only allowed to be registered in classes for their current grade (ex. if the student is currently in grade 2 they can only register in grade 2 Summer Session classes). The only exception is for the Skill Builder – Jumpstart Grade 1 which is intended for current Kindergarten students.
