The Zeiger Scholars Fund


Recognizing Larry Zeiger (retired PLHS teacher)

Target: $10,000 to establish an endowed fund so this scholarship can be awarded for many years

Larry Zeiger retired in June of 2007, one of the longest serving PLHS teachers in history. He taught English and Film Studies and annually staged an all-student original musical under the “Gotta Sing, Gotta Dance” banner.

To recognize the impact that Mr. Zeiger has had on countless Pointers for more than 30 years, and to continue that tradition, the Point Loma High School Pointer Association established a new scholarship for graduating seniors: Zeiger Scholars.

Thanks to the generosity of alumni and friends, this scholarship will be awarded annually to a senior with financial need, to recognize the student’s participation in the areas of visual arts, performing arts or film production. Larry participated in defining the criteria for his scholarship, and each year he will make the final selection of the winner.”

Your donation will fund the PLHSPA Zeiger Scholars scholarship which will be given out yearly. (First awarded in June 2008.)
If we reach our goal of $10,000 it will allow us to establish an endowment fund that will allow this scholarship to be given for many years.

" Larry is all about opening up opportunities for students and creating community"
- Friend and colleague, Gene Bier

Once a Pointer, Always a Pointer!

Larry's students were inspired through his ability to help them dream bigger dreams than they ever imagined possible. Larry retired this June after 33 years of teaching at PLHS.

As a teacher of English, cinema studies and musical theater, Larry brought his creative, boundless enthusiasm and energy to the classroom every single day.

Over 3,000 students participated in Larry's Gotta Sing, Gotta Dance musical productions over the years.

Larry regularly reports on the successes of his former students, including many who chose to pursue careers in the visual and performing arts.

As he said on the last night of his last show this June, Larry considers many of these former students to be his best friends.
