In 1999, 12 students and one teacher were shot and killed by two students at Columbine High School in Colorado. The first of those to be killed in the senseless tragedy was Rachel Scott, a well-liked young lady with huge goals for her future. Her story did not end that day. In fact, her 17 years of life left a legacy that has gone on to reach and uplift millions in the form of “Rachel’s Challenge.” At 7 p.m. on November 4 at the Athens High School Annex Auditorium, Rachel’s Challenge will be officially introduced within Athens ISD. The hope is that the program’s impact will be community wide and not confined within the school walls. To have that impact, the district leadership team is calling on students, parents, community leaders and everyone who believes one person can make a positive impact on the lives of others to join us for the presentation.
