we are trying to  have  have  the text in varsclass  top align with the  text in options class and have them
both relkaative to outerclass.  It looks like varsclass data is beoing displayed relative to  optiuons class
and not relative to outerclass.  Is there a way to align these two relative classes  to the outerclass?

If you remove all the position declarations, wouldn't that give you the normal state of things with everything aligned from the top of its container? Maybe margin/padding is what you need instead of position absolute/relative if you want to space things away from their container borders.
