Lions Park Remote Learning Update
LETTER FROM THE PTO
Dear Lions Park Families,
We hope everyone had a fun and safe Halloween! We are so proud of all the students that submitted entries for our pumpkin decorating contest. The top 3 winners received gift cards to Oberweis and the 5 students with honorable mention received free ice cream scoops at Oberweis!
Thank you to everyone who participated in the Coolest School contest with Capannari! Hopefully, your freezers are filled with enough ice cream to get you through the cold months ahead. Thank you also to Natalie K Photography for the support of District 57 PTO’s! Because Natalie donated a portion of her school picture profits, $170 will be donated to Lions Park PTO.
The Social Connections Committee has kicked off with virtual escape rooms and canvas painting and we have had a great response. If you have any questions in regards to these activities, please please reach out to: Vicki Chung - vickichung501@gmail.com, Patty Susmarski – pavlah1@aol.com, or Zhaleh Pylawka – znaghi1@gmail.com.
Thank you to all of our PTO members patience for this year’s online directory through Directory Spot. The directory should be sent to all of our members next week. To ensure access to our directory, purchase your membership at this link: https://lionsparkpto.com/product/pto-family-membership/.

Technology Issues
Although technology can work well, there are times when it just does not work correctly. Teachers will not be available to respond to emails during instructional times. Instead, please submit a Remote Learning Technology Support form by clicking here. Once submitted, someone from our District Technology Team will contact you to provide assistance.
If you experience a technical issue, please follow these steps to troubleshoot the problem:
Restart the Chromebook (make sure it turns all the way off before turning back on).
Quit any unused applications.
Sign out of an application if it's not working, and sign back in.
Move closer to your internet router if you are experiencing connectivity issues.
Turn off any accessibility features i.e., contrast mode, special cursor that may be set on the Chromebook. These can cause applications to run slow.
