KatieBelle Davis, an eighth-grader at Lower Dauphin Middle School, was recently recognized by Lower Dauphin Communities That Care and Hummelstown Police Department for doing the right thing.
When a new student arrived this school year, KatieBelle allowed her school counselor to share her phone number with the student so she could text with the student and answer their questions to help them prepare for the first day in a new school. KatieBelle was a new student last year, so she was familiar with this experience.
She also offered to sit with a seventh-grader who was having a difficult time finding someone to sit with since only two students were permitted per table. Lori Schaefer, counselor, nominated KatieBelle for recognition.
KatieBelle was honored by Lower Dauphin Communities That Care in the school cafeteria during lunch. She received a gift card, a Do the Right Thing T-shirt and certificate, and a restaurant coupon. This month's program sponsor was Commonwealth Financial Associates.
The Do the Right Thing program recognizes students in the Lower Dauphin community who have distinguished themselves through their accomplishments, attitude or outstanding efforts. Any adult over the age of 18 can nominate a child.
