Re: Carpool from Olney, anyone?
Good Afternoon,
Sadly I cannot carpool from Brookeville.? I wanted to share that we are planning on having our daughter take the RideOn (we live in Bethesda).? ? She got her bus pass today and will be able to ride for free.? I wanted to make sure others knew that bus passes are available from the school.

Carpool from Olney, anyone?
Hi everyone!
I am a new VAC parent and we live in Brookeville, MD. Is anyone interested in setting up a carpool for drop-offs and/or pickups between Olney and AEHS. MCPS doesn’t offer any magnet bus routes to VAC.?
Thanks!

Re: Reminder - hello/farewell social tomorrow 5/30 5-7
Hi parents,? This event is great because the parents get to know each other and share experiences, tips, etc. All of the proceeds from the?lunch and dinner orders and the raffle go to support the VAC with supplies and more -- so our lovely teachers don't have to buy materials themselves.? Karlee's was previously Deli Club and before that the Tea Room, on Kensington's antiques row -- a few blocks behind the Safeway on Connecticut Ave. There's street parking all around and a bit of parking behind the restaurant.? So far, 5 people have?bought ?tickets. Would you be able to purchase one or more? The winner is chosen tonight at Karlee's.
Looks like it's going to be a nice night - looking forward to seeing everyone tonight!? -Karen Denny? (outgoing assistant VAC/P.A.C.E. liaison.)
