Best Buy Children’s Foundation has awarded a scholarship to Kristin Espiau, a 2006 graduate of McIntosh High School. Espiau is the daughter of Stan and Nancy Espiau and plans to attend The University of Georgia this fall.

This year, the Best Buy Children’s Foundation awarded more that $2.4 million dollars to graduating high school seniors across the country. Scholarship Management Services, a department of Scholarship America, serves as the program administrator for the scholarship program. More than 1,500 graduating seniors were selected to receive a scholarship for $1,000, $2,000 or $25,000.

Scholarship recipients were chosen based on community service and academic achievement and must be entering an accredited U.S. university, college or technical school in the fall immediately following their high school graduation.
