Students from both Chappaqua middle schools will join together to parade a huge multi-colored paper chain, each link representing an act of kindness witnessed this year at school. The parade coincides with the 9th Annual Train Station Concert and music jam of middle school and Greeley student rock bands.
The paper chain project is the work of a club started in both schools last fall as a result of an assembly from Rachel’s Challenge. Rachel’s Challenge is named for Rachel Scott, the first person killed at Columbine High School in April, 1999. Her diaries became the foundation of a school program that
encourages people to start a “chain reaction of kindness.”
About 130 students from all four grades of Bell and Seven Bridges middle schools are in Friends of Rachel clubs in each school working to promote kindness. They will help assemble the chain and its hundreds of links.
