Luke Karner from Martin County High School was awarded a 2012 SSC Scholarship Award. Luke has been accepted at Florida Atlantic University but is considering completely his associates degree at Indian River State College first. He also plans to attend Chapman School of Seamanship this summer getting his captains license.
Luke has been active donating his time at Florida Oceanographic and received his intern certification. He has earned money during high school for college by running his own lawn service. During the summer of 2010, he worked with Research Aquaculture, Inc. in oyster and clam gardening. By continuing his associate’s degree work at Indian River, he could continue to earn money for his later “on-campus” life.
