-------

More than two dozens Gwinnett County Public Schools seniors have been named Broad Prize scholarship winners.

The scholarships are given in conjunction with the school system’s sharing of the annual Broad Prize, the nation’s largest education award honoring urban school districts.

Gwinnett shard the award — and $1 million in scholarships — with Orange County, Fla. Both systems received $500,000 in scholarships given to seniors, who, like their school districts, demonstrate a record of improvement throughout high school and who have financial need.

Broad Prize scholars receive two- or four-year scholarships depending on the type of institution they choose to attend. Scholarship recipients who enroll in four-year institutions receive $20,000 paid out over four years ($5,000 per year). Students who enroll in two-year institutions receive $5,000 scholarships paid out over two years ($2,500 per year).
