January 2017 Golden Apple Award Winner Announced

In late January 2017, the PHS Fieldhouse was packed with students anticipating the next Jan Dils Attorneys Law Golden Apple Award. Since its inception more than a decade ago, Parkersburg High has only had one teacher claim the honor, and that occurred late in 2016. Repeat schools are nothing new to the award, but for an institution to have two winners so close together, they’d have to be stellar. That was the case when we announced Lori Zyla was the winner.

Golden Apple Award winners often wear multiple hats, and Zyla is no different. She is currently the Theater teacher and she is also the Speech and Debate Team coach. Both roles keep her busy long after the last school bell rings on Friday. Between Speech Tournaments, Theater productions and competitions, Mrs. Zyla goes above and beyond with her students.

It should come as no surprise that Lori was nominated by one of her students. Mrs. Zyla is an inspiration to her students and the entire school. This was obvious by the applause she received as her name was announced. It’s teachers like Mrs. Zyla that make us proud to sponsor the Golden Apple Award. Keep up the great work Lori!
