We would like to invite all students, both virtual and in-person, to participate in our first spirit week of the year. This will take place on the week of October 26th!
SLLIS is hard at work preparing for Trimester 2! Our staff needs time to plan for a safe and successful launch, so we will have an early dismissal on Thursday, October 29. Bus routes and pick-up will begin at 11:30 am, and students can take a "grab-and-go" lunch.
Flu shots will still be given to students who signed up prior to dismissal. There is no school on Friday, October 30. We're looking forward to launching Trimester 2 on November 2nd!
As we close out our SLLIS Virtual Fundraiser, we want to extend a special thank you to our presenting sponsor, Emerson. We also want to recognize Ameren and Delta Dental for their generous support of SLLIS in response to the pandemic! We will draw winners for restaurant gift cards next week and have recognized all our generous donors on our website: https://www.sllis.org/virtual-fundraiser. Thank you!!!

Good afternoon, SLLIS! We wanted to share an update on recent technical challenges. Changing class and staffing schedules can be highly disruptive, so before attempting a huge schedule change for virtual and in-school learners to improve wifi connectivity, we tried over a dozen strategies to address the technical issue. Unfortunately, these strategies made little difference in solving the problem. Next week we plan to finalize changes to Virtual Academy and In-School Learning schedules that will allow all SLLIS students to have a much improved learning experience. We will be in touch with details about these changes early next week!
