TLS Celebrates Liddiard's Selection as an Ann & Ryland Brown Teacher Fellow for the Library of Virginia

Henrico, VA - August 2, 2024 - The Lynnhaven School is thrilled to announce that Evan Liddiard, Humanities teacher, has been selected as one of four Ann & Ryland Brown teacher fellows for the Library of Virginia. This prestigious fellowship recognizes exceptional educators and provides them with the opportunity to conduct archival research and develop curriculum materials.

Mr. Liddiard's research will focus on the complex identities and interactions among white, black, and indigenous Virginians, particularly in the early 20th century. His work aims to uncover and highlight the stories and individuals that have often been overlooked and untold in traditional narratives.

"We are incredibly proud of Mr. Liddiard's achievement and the significant contributions he will make through this fellowship," said Dr. Casey Hitchcock, Head of School at The Lynnhaven School. "His research is poised to enrich our humanities classes at Lynnhaven and provide valuable insights for teachers across the state."

Mr. Liddiard presented his research at the 15th annual Ann & Ryland Brown Teacher Institute in Richmond, VA, on August 1 & 2. He is confident that his findings will not only enhance the educational experience for students at The Lynnhaven School but also benefit educators statewide. By shedding light on lesser-known stories and perspectives, his work will help create a more inclusive and comprehensive understanding of Virginia's history.
