We are currently at 63% of our goal with only a few short months before the end of the school year. Its crunch time! Let's meet our goal of 12,000 Box Tops before the end of the year so we can earn some major money for our school. Mrs. Hahn's 2nd grade class collected the most Box Tops during March (206) earning them a popcorn party for snack in the coming days. Mrs. Hahn's class is pretty far ahead in the race for collecting the most Box Tops in the school year. Are they going to win the Ice Cream party at the end of the school year or are students from other classes going to step it up to bring their classrooms to sweet victory? TPAAK’s Mission Statement The mission of T.R.
