Who Was Rachel?

Rachel Joy Scott was the first person killed at the devastating Columbine High School shooting. This will not be the only thing she is remembered by, though. Rachel was a very caring and kind person and always impacted people in positive ways. She never hesitated to stick up for people.....to her, bullying would not be tolerated. Today, she is remembered for her kindness-oriented goals. Her family has started a program "Rachel's Challenge" to spread her compassion around the world. They talk to many schools around the world about Rachel's life, and how her death will not be in vain.

Her Goals

1.  Eliminate prejudice - Don't judge people on first impressions, get to know people before you make assumptions...
2.  Little Acts of Kindness - A little kindness can go a long way and make a person's day better...
3.  Positive Influences -  Input Effects Output...
4.  Dare to Dream - Set goals for yourself and write them in a journal....Dream BIG!!
5.  Start a Chain Reaction - "I have this theory that if one person can go out of their way to show compassion, then it will start a chain reaction of the same. People will never know how far a little kindness can go."                                             -Rachel Joy Scott
