Paper Towel Drive

Please bring a roll of paper towels to the PTSO meeting to donate to the school!!  Because there are no sinks in the classrooms at Abbott, teachers are finding that paper towels are just as useful as Kleenex.   

If you do not plan to attend the PTSO meeting but still want to help out just send your roll to school with your student.  To view other items needed by teachers click on the Wish List page on the right hand side bar.  The teachers will really appreciate your donation!
