Cardinal Courier - November 9

Join us for PTA 101: a discussion about what a PTA is, what the Abingdon PTA can do for your student and the community, and how you as a parent/guardian can participate and share your ideas. We will be sending out a survey for those who are unable to join the meeting.

General PTA business will include a review of the meeting minutes from October's meeting. October's meeting minutes can be reviewed here.
