Langley is one of ten high schools in the Pittsburgh Public Schools. On November, 23 2011 the Pittsburgh Board of Education approved a reform plan that would close Langley High School as an active school for the 2012-13 school year. The staff and student body would be relocated to the nearby Breshear High School, the district revealed plans for the Langley building to remain open as a middle school grades 6-8.
The high school ranked 114th of 123 high school in western Pennsylvania for academic achievement based on three years of PSSA results on: math, reading, writing and one year of science, by the Pittsburgh Business Times in May 2009.[4]
The building is an example of Tudor Revival architecture with the portions completed in 1923 and 1927 designed by MacClure & Spahr and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The high school is named for aviation pioneer and one-time University of Pittsburgh professor Samuel P. Langley.[5]
