A Florida State University student from Coconut Creek has been selected as a Do The Right Thing of Coconut Creek Scholarship Award winner.
Rolner Benjamin, who graduated in 2022 from Coconut Creek High School, is the fourth and final recipient of the organization’s $1,000 scholarship awards in 2022. He received the award in recognition of his academic mentorship in high school.
Benjamin is studying psychology and social work at FSU and later plans to pursue a master’s degree.
“I feel greatly honored, and I’m grateful for this opportunity,” Benjamin said in a video produced by the police department.
Coconut Creek High School Principal Dr. Nicole Nearor said Benjamin sets a great example for other students.
“We’re so proud of you,” Nearor said. “We all love you, Roland.”
