Good evening, Einstein Community,
I hope you are having a wonderful weekend. We want to remind everyone that tomorrow is our Guardian-Teacher Conference Day. We look forward to seeing you all and having the opportunity to connect about the progress and growth of our students. A quick reminder that Monday and Tuesday will be early release days for students.
As we approach the Thanksgiving break, I also want to take a moment to express my gratitude. I am truly thankful to be part of this amazing community — working alongside our dedicated students, staff, and families is a privilege. I wish each of you a peaceful and restful break, filled with family, friends, and moments of thankfulness.
Justin Krop
Principal Intern.

Chromebook repair and replacement (REPEAT)
Chromebook repair and replacement obligation letters will be going home soon.
Each student is financially responsible for damage caused or loss of any Chromebook and charger that is checked out to the student. The device is loaned to the student to be used for instructional purposes only and in accordance with MCPS Regulation IGT-RA, User Responsibilities for Computer Systems, Electronic Information, and Network Security.
No cost is associated for a student to borrow, possess, or use an MCPS Chromebook. A family is only financially responsible when there is avoidable damage to the device. If the device is faulty, there is no charge to the family; however, if the damage is considered avoidable or the device or charger is lost, the family will be charged according to MCPS current parts and replacement costs. For more information, please see the graphic below, linked to the FAQs.
SSL News and Opportunities (UPDATED)
The Olney Ballet Theatre is a non-profit organization that performs The Nutcracker every December at Our Lady of Good Counsel Performing Arts Center in Olney, MD.
