Events
Major school events include theme days such as Fall Festival, Healthy Decisions Day, World Awareness Day, and schoolwide field trips, as well as various senior-specific events. SAIL is often visited by a variety of guest speakers who hold panels on major issues both in and outside of the community. Attendance at guest lectures is often, but not always, voluntary, and in the past SAIL has been visited by such notable guests as film director Victor Nunez, British Reggae artist Pato Banton and the Californian Reggae band Mystic Roots.
SAIL also often holds student talent shows every other few months on Friday, called Funky Fridays. Funky Friday is similar to a small-scale version of Tallahassee's monthly First Friday events held at Railroad Square. Students interested in performing on Funky Friday must sign up at the office in advance.

Famous quotes containing the word events:
“A curious thing about atrocity stories is that they mirror, instead of the events they purport to describe, the extent of the hatred of the people that tell them.
Still, you can’t listen unmoved to tales of misery and murder.”
—John Dos Passos (1896–1970)
““The ideal reasoner,” he remarked, “would, when he had once been shown a single fact in all its bearings, deduce from it not only all the chain of events which led up to it but also all the results which would follow from it.””
—Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (1859–1930)
“Just as a mirror may be used to reflect images, so ancient events may be used to understand the present.”
—Chinese proverb.
