Hard work paid off for Coral Shores High School students on May 22, when students were awarded scholarships for their perseverance and academic prowess during Senior Night.
The community raised more than $2.2 million in support of college and technical scholarships, with more than $430,000 in prepaid scholarships being awarded to 19 members of Take Stock in Children. Students were also recognized for their individual achievements in business, environmental work and community service. Several scholarships, awarded on the basis of character, were given in honor of former students including Pascal Weisberger and Joey Patterson, whose legacies of kindness and dedication to local causes have made permanent impacts on the community.
Special recognition was given to seven students training for the U.S. Marines. The event concluded with an announcement of the school’s valedictorian and salutatorian, which were Jordan Lubis, with a 4.67 grade point average, and Nathan Duckworth, with a grade point average of 4.60, respectively.
