Rihanna is a senior at Hoboken High School and will be attending Felician University where she will begin studying for a career in nursing.

Rihanna exemplifies the Dante Alighieri Society’s adage of “Service Above Self,” and expresses her desire to “care and support” others in need. Rihanna will receive her $5,000.00 award at the Hoboken High School Awards Ceremony on June 12th.
