International High School @ Langley Park

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.
