Sanislo Elementary is the latest school in West Seattle to “reunite” students and staff, at a distance, via a parade! Our video above shows participants just after they left the school on Puget Ridge early this afternoon. Some of the sights:

Even a classic fire truck!

And along the route, Chris got this video of some of the students on the roadside:

It was two months ago today that Seattle Public Schools announced its campuses would close for at least two weeks, which as everyone knows then became the rest of the school year.

Many many thanks to Laura Probst for tirelessly organizing this great event for our staff, students and families. Not only was it her great idea, she researched routes, biked the route on her own time, posted signs at each turn of the chosen route and even provided us with decorations for our cars! Laura’s love for Sanislo and our community has showered our school close to 2 decades. Thank you Laura for all the love you share. Your kind and helpful personality has never gone unnoticed. On behalf of Sanislo and our families, WE LOVE YOU!
