The following student registration information is for families born outside of Canada and who are not yet Canadian citizens (Work Permit/Study Permit/PR/Refugee families).
Newcomer Welcome Centre
Welcome and thank you for choosing Langley! For families that qualify, the District’s goal is to review documents and waive international student fees as soon as possible. The Newcomer Welcome Centre is open year-round. Once fees are waived, families can register throughout the school year.
If you have arrived in Canada with a work permit, study permit, PR/Refugee families or visitor record, you will need to visit the school board office in-person to register your child. The office is located at 4875 – 222 Street, Langley, BC. Registrations will NOT be completed online or by email.
