Ilaria Palella, a senior at Cherokee High School, was selected by state Assemblywoman Jean Stanfield (R-Lumberton) for November's student spotlight.
The Student Spotlight program recognizes exemplary high school seniors. Palella completed a month-long community service program in Costa Rica and a language and culture appreciation study abroad in Palma de Mallorca in Spain, according to Cherokee High School.
"I know she is going to make a huge impact on the world and I am sure everyone is excited to watch her flourish in her future endeavors," Stanfield said in a statement. She profiles Palella on her Facebook page. The program also is sponsored by Assemblyman Ryan E. Peters (R-Lumberton).
"Ilaria has been stellar in everything she has done at Cherokee and most impressive is her humble nature," counselor Steve Orihel said in a news release from the high school.
