Manson School District is bringing Rachel’s Challenge to students during a school assembly today. And they are inviting the community to take part in the program during a community assembly this evening. Rachel’s Challenge was developed after the Columbine School shootings in 1999, and is based on the life of Rachel Scott, who was killed in that incident.

Rachel’s Challenge is said to be one of the most life changing school programs in America, targeted to motivate students to replace bullying and violent behavior with kindness and compassion.

KOZI spoke with Rachel’s Challenge Presenter, Pat Nixon, who will be at Manson Schools today and he gave us some insight to Rachel’s life and the purpose of this program."CLICK HERE" for Audio

Matt Charlton, Manson School Superintendent said he heard about Rachel’s Challenge from parents who had seen the presentation, and soon after looking into it, he knew it was a perfect fit for Manson.
