Sabatino (Sam) Cerroni, a recent Elk County Catholic High School and St. Leo School graduate, has been awarded a national Work Ethic Scholarship through the Mike Rowe Works Foundation.

Mike Rowe is famous for his work on the Dirty Jobs series on Discovery Channel, which highlights the value and integrity of manual labor and the trades. Cerroni, who graduated from ECC in 2019, is entering his second year in the building and construction program at Penn College in Williamsport, PA.

According to the Works Foundation, “The Work Ethic Scholarship Program is about recognizing the people who understand the importance of personal responsibility, delayed gratification, a positive attitude, and, of course, work ethic. The hardworking men and women who keep the lights on, water running, and air flowing—the next generation of skilled workers who will work smart and hard. These are the folks we consider rock stars, and we want to reward them.”
