Baldwin High School senior Emma Meyer received the first-ever Officer Sean Sluganski Memorial Scholarship on Wednesday.Officer Sean Sluganski was killed in the line of duty back in February, responding to a call in McKeesport. Sluganski graduated from Baldwin High School in 2009. The officer's family joined with the Baldwin-Whitehall Educational Foundation to create a scholarship for a graduating senior pursuing a career in law enforcement and crime prevention."I wish it would make him proud, knowing that I'm going to go into law enforcement," Meyer said. "And I hope to fulfill what he has in the law enforcement field." Meyer will attend Arizona State University in the fall to pursue a degree in forensic science, enroll in the police academy and earn a place on the FBI Evidence Response Team."I've just always had a passion for helping others," she said. "And I know that I wanted to be in some way. And for a while, I wanted to be an officer like Officer Sluganski has been. But I actually found a field in forensic science to help give others closure."Sluganski's sisters, Sarah and Shela, presented Meyer with her scholarship."That means so much to us," Sarah Greiner said. "And she's going to help so many people. We're really proud of her. And we really are excited to see what the future holds for her."In her essay, Meyer wrote that to be successful in law enforcement, you need integrity, courage, and drive — all the traits Sluganski was known for in his career and his community.Shela Sluganski said, "Obviously, Emma getting this is a positive thing, coming from Sean's alma mater high school. This is where he went to school. It's tough every day, but having these positive outlets is good for us as well.""We're getting through day by day," she said. "There obviously are days that are better than others. But this is a moment of light for us, to be able to provide something like this in Sean's name and for his legacy to live on."Multiple local law enforcement agencies helped create the scholarship, and there are many fundraisers planned to help grow the fund.
