Hello families,
We had a great turn out at our VAC kick-off, bright and early this morning! The kids had their fill of donuts and munchkins! Thanks to PACE for supporting our amazing VAC! We’re so fortunate to have this amazing program at Einstein! If you haven’t joined PACE, please do as they are working hard to include the VAC in all of our endeavors! PACE funds supplied donuts and juice for our students this morning!?
Donate here-

Best,?

Re: AEHS contact for ParentVUE?

 

Sort of :) Einstein couldn't help me directly, but directed me to the school my son would be in now if he were already in MCPS.? I reached out to Viers Mill Elementary and they were able to tell me that there was nothing to connect yet, that Kenneth would need to be enrolling in an MCPS school to have something to link....so if he doesn't show up automatically after doing the middle school placement, I can then call his middle school to get the link done.? So I have an answer but it will need to wait.....which is fine!

Hey Titan families!
Thanks so much for all of you who supported the VAC! Our amazing community almost filled ALL of the requests from the VAC teachers. There are a few things left if anyone hasn’t contributed thus far! Thank you, thank you!

Hi Sarah,
Yeah - when I had two in MCPS I had similar issues.
Ultimately, I can’t remember who- but it was phone calls asking for help that had someone fix the glitch for us.

Has it been resolved for you?

Hoping so,
Eva (Annalyn)

AEHS contact for ParentVUE?

 

I have a sophomore in the VAC, but her 5th grade brother is in his last year at a private school and will be at one of the MSMC middle schools next year.? I have gotten his MCPS ID reactivated with the DCC office, but they sent me directions for ParentVUE as if I would be new to the system which I am not :)? When I asked how to add in the profile for my younger one, they said I should already be able to see it in ParentVUE and if I couldn't to contact Einstein directly.? Soooo....does anyone know who I should contact at the school about getting my younger one added to my ParentVUE profile?? Or do I just call the main number and throw myself on their mercy?

ParentVUE Help states to contact your child's school directly but since he isn't in an MCPS school yet that doesn't apply and Einstein being his sister's school I guess is the next best thing...

Thanks,
Sarah Woodruff (parent to Abigail Stark)

Hi All, hope you are all well. I’m reaching out because Ms Harris is wondering who the admin for this group is and how new parents can be involved. Please email her directly.

Hi All,?
We could still use some food items, help with setup and clean up both nights, and water the second night. Just a friendly reminder to bring single-serving, non-shareable, store-bought items. We know other shows happening same time so help where you can.?
Thanks!?
