A note from me: I’m Bronson Job, a REALTOR® (PREC) with Momentum Realty Inc., so I earn a commission when I help someone buy or sell. I write these guides to be genuinely useful — general information, not advice on your specific situation — and I take no payment from any third party named in them. How I verify.

Direct answer

The Langley School District does not publish this catchment as a list of neighbourhoods, so any such list you find in a listing or a guide is a guess. It is drawn as a boundary on a map, it is decided address by address, and it moves. Alex Hope Elementary is at 21150 85 Avenue, a kindergarten-to-grade-seven school of roughly 560 students. The district publishes a School Locator that takes a civic address and returns the catchment school, plus the same boundaries as downloadable maps, and it says plainly that the Locator is the authoritative answer rather than proximity. Two things make that lookup worth doing rather than assuming. Walnut Grove is served by several elementaries whose boundaries interlock, James Kennedy at 9060 212 Street and Topham at 21555 91 Avenue among them, so two houses a block apart can feed different schools. And a catchment is not an attribute of the property. Langley has been redrawing boundaries steadily as new schools open, and the package approved in April 2026 sets new boundaries taking effect in September 2027. A house that sat in a given catchment when it last sold may not sit there now. If a particular school is part of why you are buying, run the address through the Locator before you write the offer, and put nothing in the contract that depends on a catchment staying where it is.
