Creek Valley senior Chaeli Polk signed a commitment letter on Wednesday, May 3, to attend Wayne State College and compete on the Dance Team. Polk was joined by family and friends at the signing ceremony at Creek Valley High School.
Polk said she had other offers from schools, but felt that Wayne State was the right fit for her.
"I visited Hastings College and they offered a scholarship, but it didn't feel right for me there. Wayne State felt like home and I knew immediately it was where I wanted to go," Polk said.
Polk wants to major in Human Services and then after graduating, pursue a Masters Degree in Counseling. Her favorite class at Creek Valley was English, and she said that she will miss her coaches, teachers and friends, but is excited to be moving forward to the next chapter of her life.
