Wheeling Park High School

Congratulations to Wheeling Park High School’s Dailey Ward for winning second place in the West Virginia Poetry Out Loud Competition!!! The Patriot senior was presented with his award Friday by West Virginia Department of Arts, Culture and History Curator Randall Reid-Smith. West Virginia Commission on the Arts member Susan Hogan, West Virginia Delegate Erikka Storch, Wheeling Park Principal Meredith Dailer and Ohio County Schools Innovation Coach Gail Adams, who is Ward’s Poetry Out Loud Coach, were on hand for the presentation. Ward and the presentation will be featured tonight on WRTF7 and WTOV9. Poetry Out Loud is a national arts education program that encourages the study of great poetry by offering free educational materials and a dynamic recitation competition for high school students across the country. This program helps students master public speaking skills, build self-confidence, and learn about literary history and contemporary life. Poetry Out Loud is a partnership of the National Endowment for the Arts, Poetry Foundation, and the state and jurisdictional arts agencies. Since 2005, Poetry Out Loud has grown to reach more than 4 million students and 65,000 teachers from 16,000 schools in every state, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, Guam, and American Samoa.
