INTERNATIONAL HIGH SCHOOL @ LANGLEY PARK

International High School @ Langley Park is a public secondary school that is part of the Prince George's County Public Schools school district, located in Bladensburg, MD with about 236 students offering grade levels from 9th Grade to 11th Grade. With about 20 teachers, International High School @ Langley Park has a student/teacher ratio of about 11:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

The **International High School @ Langley Park (IHSLP)**, located in Bladensburg, Maryland, is a specialized secondary school within the Prince George’s County Public Schools (PGCPS) system. The school operates as an "International School" model, specifically designed to serve the needs of recent immigrant students and English Language Learners (ELLs). Its mission is centered on providing a supportive, culturally responsive environment that helps students transition into the American education system while accelerating their proficiency in English and preparing them for college and career readiness.

Academically, the school utilizes a project-based learning approach that encourages students to use their bilingual backgrounds as an asset rather than a barrier. By partnering with organizations like the Internationals Network for Public Schools, IHSLP focuses on linguistic development, social-emotional support, and community engagement. Because the student body is largely composed of newcomers to the United States, the school prioritizes a highly personalized, inclusive culture that helps students navigate the complexities of adjusting to a new country while simultaneously meeting rigorous academic standards.
