The presentation features the inspiring story of Rachel Scott, whose example of kindness and acceptance was brought to light when she became the first victim of the shootings at Columbine High School in 1999. Her life, writings, and legacy have become the basis for Rachel’s Challenge and her story, which is shared worldwide. Conveyed through stories from Rachel’s life and writings, the Challenge Presentation shows the profound positive impact we can have on those around us. It demonstrates to the listener the power of deliberately reaching out in word and action to others to start what Rachel called “a chain reaction of kindness and compassion.” This program’s initiative is to stop school violence and provide simple steps students can take to create a positive, inclusive culture in their schools.
