Manglona Wins NJROTC Scholarship
Kayla Manglona was awarded a Navy ROTC (Marine Option) scholarship at University of South Carolina. Cadet Manglona will also receive a monthly stipend. Upon graduation, she will commit to four years in the USMC. The scholarship is a tremendous accomplishment, as there is fierce competition nationally for a decreasing numbers of scholarships available. In addition to SAT/ACT scores & GPA, special consideration is given to a student's involvement in extracurricular & volunteer activities.
