A delegation of second- through eighth-grade students visited UC Davis Children's Hospital as part of a school project on cancer, bringing with them more than 100 handmade cards and posters to distribute to pediatric cancer patients.

The students, from Capitol Heights Academy, a charter school located in Sacramento's Oak Park neighborhood, presented the cards to child life specialist Cindy Jones, who talked with the group about childhood cancer and its treatment. Melissa Pelochino, a reading specialist at the school, organized the project.
