GM presents scholarships to 12 students

LORDSTOWN — Twelve students were honored for their academic achievements at the General Motor’s assembly plant here.

The Youngstown State University students each received a $500 scholarship through money raised from the People’s Store at the plant today. The store is a nonprofit entity that sells GM merchandise and the profits go toward the scholarship fund.

To qualify for the scholarship, the students had to be dependents of plant employees.

The 12 students who received the scholarships are Paul Gruver, Austintown; Melissa Haug, Poland; Beth Myers, Canfield; Halie Calhoun, Niles; Chelsea Kernan, McDonald; Jon Michael Valentine, Canfield; Tori Heverly, Lordstown; Brian Remias, Austintown; Robert Schnellback III, Newton Falls; Taylor Daugherty, Youngstown; Tessa Lowry, Youngstown; and Marissa Rose, Niles.
