DENNISVILLE – Presenter Mark Higginbottom recently brought Rachel’s Challenge to Dennis Township Middle School.
He shared Rachel Scott’s story and urged students to start a chain reaction of kindness. Scott was the first student slain in the Columbine school shooting in 1999. At her funeral, many students spoke of the impact she had on their lives with acts of kindness.
