It’s time to vote on The Fayetteville Observer’s Student of the Week for Oct. 7-11, and this week, we have eight remarkable Cumberland County students.
Each week, local high schools nominate students for their outstanding academic and school achievements and community service. Readers will be able to cast their votes for The Fayetteville Observer Student of the Week between 5 a.m. Monday and noon Thursday every week during the traditional school year. We’ll announce each week’s winner at 5 a.m. Friday.

Battalion Commander Rheann Aguas, and 2 nd Lt. Jordynne Gurganus, seniors, South View High School
These two cadets have shown resilience and perseverance by assisting me since the first day of school up until now. We have triple membership in the Army JROTC program here at South View High School … . I have single-handedly been running it by myself when we are supposed to have two Army JROTC instructors, but God (sent) two angels who are these two students. They make sure that we all have self-belief and self-efficacy in order for this program to have the ability to succeed this semester. They are the unsung heroes that I would like to salute today!
