McCORDSVILLE — Emily Rollo was awarded a $1,000 scholarship in May from Hancock County Business and Professional Women.

She is already a certified nursing assistant, having taken course work in a medical setting to acquire the certificate simultaneously with her high school classes. This was a pilot program at MVHS, and she interned for 75 hours at Springhurst Campus in Greenfield.
Rollo was also involved in golf and choir in high school, and assisted at the Relay for Life and Hancock County Hope House. She is the daughter of Greg and Marla Rollo; the family lives in McCordsville.
