Joint SLC/Student Council Event – Yesterday, twenty one Pierce Downer students and their parents/grandparents brightened the day of many residents at Lexington Healthcare Center in Lombard. At this SLC event, students interviewed the residents, played human bingo, and made a valentine’s door decoration with the seniors. A HUGE thank you goes out to Hannah Wells and Beatrix Hawkins, Student Council Members, who partnered with SLC and planned all the activities and details of the visit! The residents were beyond excited to hear and see the performances from members of our very own PD family. Sajan Komanduri, Beatrix Hawkins and Meredith Hawkins all played piano pieces. Briley Steffes played guitar and sang several songs, one of which was an original. Addelynn Amidei and Annie Scholz Irish danced. Thank you ALL for helping make this event a success!! The kindness and excitement that filled the room at Lexington was cherished by many!! Pictures of this event can be found here. Stayed tuned for our February Cancer Care Event….details coming soon!
