We are asking you to please assist in getting the following information out to EVERYONE YOU HAVE ON AN EMAIL LIST. There are two missing children who because of there age are not cover by the Amber Alert System. WE are hoping that by sending this information to the widest number of people perhaps they can be found. PLEASE HELP SEND THIS TO ALL OF YOUR LISTS! TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE Thank you, June K. Gutterman, Ed.D., Director Daniel S. Robins, Chair We received the below today from RAVSAK, the national organization of Jewish Day Schools. Rachel Smith (one of the two missing girls) is a member of the Potomac MD. Jewish community and a member of their local B'nai Tzedek teen philanthropy program. Rachel Smith, from North Potomac, along with her friend Rachel Crites, have been missing since Friday, January 19th. They were going to a movie in Georgetown on Friday afternoon and haven't been seen since. Rachel Smith, who is currently a junior at Wootten High School, also ran track last year. She is 5'1" tall and weighs about 118 lbs. She has green eyes and medium-length brown hair (the photo below is a fairly current one of her). Rachel Smith is 16 and is too old for an "Amber Alert". Her mom, Marian, is a preschool teacher at B'nai Tzedek. Marian just learned today that the last phone call she received from her daughter on Friday afternoon was actually traced to a cell tower in Charlestown, WV -- so the girls could be anywhere at this point. They were last known to be travelling in a dark blue Subaru Outback Station Wagon with a black cargo box on the roof. The license plate number is MD: MBJ 485. Anyone who has any knowledge of where these girls might be or has seen the vehicle, please call Montgomery County Police ASAP at 301/279-8000 or 240-773-5400 or call 911. A recent photograph of Rachel may be found by clicking on/ or going to the following link: http://www.bnaitzedek.org/Rachel.html. Please ask your kids if they know her, or forward this email to them. I think they're most likely to know where she might be or how to reach her. And please circulate this message to everyone you know.
