Please also share this with interested community members, caregivers, and others who care about Abingdon. We will deliver the first batch of signatures to the school board on April 1.

Help Make Cultural Heritage Night a Success! #

We are busy planning Cultural Heritage Night for the evening of April 19 from 6-8pm at Abingdon. The PTA would love for your family to participate in this celebration by showcasing your cultural heritage. Whether it’s through sharing a traditional dish, performing a dance, or wearing traditional clothing, your contribution will help make this event truly memorable. Please respond via email or phone to Meredith Greene, 703-216-5215, [email protected] if your family would like to participate in a cultural performance, teaching, activity, dance, or showcase! Volunteers for this event are greatly needed as well and can also contact Meredith.

Thank you for your help,
