Thanks to our incredibly dedicated staff and the patience of our families, we finished dismissing parent pick-up students in under 25 minutes today! We are so grateful for our community's flexibility during the difficulty of national bus shortages and beginning the year with more students than we have yet had at the Pine Street campus.
SLLIS Families: there have been some changes to visitor parking at SLLIS that we want to make sure you're aware of. This is especially important if your preference is to park and walk up to pick up your student at dismissal. Please review the attached letter for details: https://5il.co/yck2. Thank you!
Attention Middle School parents: we are still looking for more students in 6th-8th grade to join our Boys Volleyball and Girls Volleyball teams!

Pick-up families: Please remember that for car pick-up, you can line up along the curb on 19th Street as well as Pine.

We are working hard to improve dismissal at SLLIS! We have some important updates to share. To pick up your student by car, you may choose from two pick-up lines: one on Pine Street, and one on 19th Street. You may also choose to park in the SLLIS parking lot and walk to the playground entrance to pick up your child. Dismissal time is very busy, so please review the details here so you can easily access pick-up lines and the parking lot: https://5il.co/xy25 . The attached image has more information about how to access the pick-up lines and parking lot. Again, thank you for patience and collaboration as we work to make dismissal as safe and efficient as possible!
Hello, SLLIS Community! To our pick-up families, thank you so much for your patience as our students, staff, and parents learn our pick-up procedures. It's been a while since we had to dismiss 500 students from 1881 Pine all at one time! We will have some updates for you tomorrow to help make the process smoother, and we really appreciate your patience!
If your student rides a SLLIS bus, please review a few very important updates linked here: https://5il.co/xquz. Thank you!

Welcome back to another year at SLLIS to all our families! PLEASE REMEMBER: You and your students should NOT leave your vehicle during drop-off or pick-up time; teachers will walk students to and from the vehicle. This will ensure we can run morning and dismissal as smoothly as possible. Thank you!
