Inspirational figures come in all shapes and sizes - and ages.
Which is why The Tennessean is honoring inspirational high school students across Middle Tennessee in this week's Student of the Week feature.
We asked principals, teachers and guidance counselors to send us their inspirational student nominations as The Tennessean continues to recognize students who are the "best of the best" in different categories this school year.
They responded with five students.
Now, it's your turn to decide who comes out on top by voting in our online poll. Votes can be cast anytime through 11:59 p.m. on Thursday, Nov. 6.
Take a look at the list of students below and what was said about each.
