Cynthia Jones
The Sistersville High School Alumni Association is pleased to recognize Ms. Cynthia Jones as Golden Apple Award Recipient for 2022. “Cyndi” is a SHS graduate of 1978 and the daughter of Arnold and Dorothy Midcap-Jones, SHS graduates of the class of 1952. Completing the SHS family is her brother Brian, Class of 1974 and Eric, Class of 1984. The Golden Apple Award is presented annually by the association in recognition of a teacher who has exemplified the teaching profession and has at least 25 years of service to students of Tyler County.
Cyndi graduated from Glenville State College in 1983 with a degree in Elementary Education with specialization in Language Arts for grades 4-8. She started her career in Clay County before returning to the Tyler County School System. She worked for seven years at Elsworth Middle School until the schools consolidated in 1993. At that point, Cyndi taught for the next ten years at Arthur I. Boreman School. She finished her career at Sistersville Elementary School, working for fifteen years at that location. She stated that one of the best things about being a teacher is seeing a student’s face light up when they finally understood something they had struggled with for a while. Cyndi served as computer coordinator at both AIB and SES for several years. She has a combined 32 years of service teaching students in Tyler County and she continues to enjoy working as a substitute teacher.
