CHS participates in the foreign-exchange program where students from different
countries have the opportunity to visit and go to school in different places.
This year we have a new foreign-exchange student, Kamila Greziak.
Kamila is a tall, blonde, sixteen-year-old sophomore from Siedlce, Poland. She
is a member of a family of four that includes her mother, her father, and her
twenty-year old-brother. She says she does not have any pets,“but I have
a brother. Does that count?”
Having just recently arrived, Kamila is not sure what she thinks about Cookeville
yet, but when asked about the differences between Cookeville and Poland, she
just laughed and said, “There are too many to say!” She eventually
did say that one of the biggest differences is the transportation. “In
Poland you usually don’t used cars to get where you want to go. You just
walk.”
Kamila likes to play tennis and says she might try out for the CHS tennis team.
She loves to dance to her favorite music, hip-hop. Her favorite color is red,
and it is also the color of her favorite food, tomatoes. She also loves to do
what every other teenage girl loves to do....SHOP!
As awesome as Cookeville is, Kamila does miss her home in Poland. What she misses
most is being able to go to France, the food (which she claims is much better
than American food), and hanging out with her friends back in Siedlce.
On behalf of the Cookeville High School, the Charger staff would like to welcome Kamila to Cookeville, and we hope she enjoys her year with us.
