  • Do the Right Thing

    The “Do The Right Thing” program honors children and youth, grades K-12, in EASD who performed a random act of kindness or selfless act. In doing so, they become a positive role model for their peers. This is a joint effort between EACTC, EASD and the three area police departments. This program provides a way to recognize good deeds and reinforce exemplary behavior.
