The Langley School District Equestrian Academy is a very uniquely structured academy designed to fit the needs of various ability levels, disciplines and demographics of riders. The Academy seeks to develop a common community and cohort group for students who have often removed themselves from our traditional school system due to a very high need for a flexible learning environment to support their equine related pursuits. This Academy seeks to provide a flexible, personalized approach to education while supporting passions and skills in horse related sports or horse related career opportunities.
