KIWANIAN MARK MONAHAN presents the Kiwanis Senior of the Month award to Chelsea Baker. 

The first Senior of the Month to be honored from the Class of 2007 is Chelsea Baker.  Her scholastic achievements, school activities and community involvement are so extensive; it’s difficult to imagine how she finds the time to do it all. 

Her numerous academic achievements include serving as president of the National Honor Society this year.  She has been a NHS member since she was a sophomore.  She is the treasurer of student council this year.  Chelsea received awards in mathematics, science and social studies each of her first three years in high school.  She won two awards in English in her sophomore and junior years, recognizing her accomplishments in English and in debate.   

Last year she was a member of the Lenawee County Honors Band, and was inducted into the Society of Women Engineers.   

Chelsea also received the LCAA Scholar Athlete Award in each of her first three years of high school.  She ran Varsity track starting in her freshman year, and has been in the Hudson Soccer League since she was a freshman.   

A 4-H member throughout high school, Chelsea also volunteers for Big Brothers Big Sisters of Lenawee County as a lunch buddy and e-mail buddy. She is a member of the Clayton Community Chorus, sings in the choir at the Clayton United Methodist Church, and is a member of her church’s youth group. 

In her “spare” time she has been a babysitter and has tutored students.
