The Central Virginia Chapter of the Armed Forces Communications and Electronics Association (AFCEA) recently announced three BRVGS Seniors as scholarship recipients, and recognized the corporate sponsors SRC Incorporated (formerly Syracuse Research Corporation) and Battelle. The grant winners are: Ayana Braxton, recipient of the Minority Scholarship sponsored by Battelle; Adriana Sprouse, recipient of the Minority Scholarship sponsored by SRC; and Courtney Sigloh, recipient of the Women’s Scholarship sponsored by Battelle.
The chapter awarded the $1,000 merit-based scholarship grants in April to qualified minority or female students enrolled in four-year accredited science or engineering programs at a Virginia college or university. AFCEA is a member-based non-profit professional association whose mission is to facilitate training and communication among government, industry and academia.
Adriana Sprouse, a senior at Louisa County High School, will attend Christopher Newport University. Ayana Braxton, an Orange County High School senior, will attend Virginia Commonwealth University. Courtney Sigloh attends Greene County High School and will attend the University of Virginia.
The scholarship winners will be recognized at an AFCEA luncheon on May 8th at the Best Western in Ruckersville at 11:30 a.m.
