The school was established in 1984, and it opened for its first official semester in fall of 1985. Due to
Cy-Fair High School,
Jersey Village High School, and
Cypress Creek High School being the only three existing high schools in the Cypress Fairbanks School District, the three schools were getting crowded. To fix the issue, the district wanted to open a fourth school. They built the Langham Creek High School on an area formerly known as Wolf Corners. Langham Creek was the fourth senior high school in the growing school district. At the time it was the largest high school under one roof and the largest two-story building in the state. In order to accommodate students by not transferring seniors and even juniors, the first year of Langham Creek was actually held in what is currently Labay Middle School. It housed a freshman and sophomore class, as well as an eighth grade class, and was considered Langham Creek Interim High School. Since the eighth grade class was not technically a high school class, all eighth grade classrooms and activities were separated from the other classes. This was during the 1984-1985 school year, while the current building was being completed. The following year, the doors were opened to the brand new building with three classes, freshmen, sophomores and juniors. There was not a senior class in the first year of the building being opened; the first seniors to graduate from Langham Creek were the class of 1987. Langham Creek was named a
National Blue Ribbon School in 1990-91. In 2016, as part of high school rezoning, a portion of
Cypress Falls High School's attendance zone was reassigned to Langham Creek High School, while a portion of Langham Creek's zone was reassigned to
Cypress Springs High School. ==Academics==
