Service learning was the focus of the February meeting of Churchill Road’s Student Council Association. SCA representatives made Valentine’s Day care packages for young patients at INOVA Children’s Hospital in Fairfax. Working with Jamie Gentille, Director of Child Life Services at INOVA Children’s Hospital, the CRS students put together packages of books, puzzles and games, along with hand-made cards, as a Valentine’s Day treat for the young patients. SCA officers J.J. Bellaschi, Izzy Schone and Whit Walter, along with SCA representative Liliana Schone and club sponsor Sharon Jones dropped the packages off at Fairfax Hospital on Valentine’s Day.
