Marshall Lloyd
New Latin Teacher
At St. Margaret's

DENISE ROBERTSON

   Last Wednesday Saint Margaret's brought in a new Latin teacher, Marshall Lloyd. He is teaching Latin I and II and some English courses for the 8th and 9th grade students. Lloyd comes from a long line of Latin teachers. He also hopes to bring more visual works in Latin to Saint Margaret's.
   Lloyd received his bachelor's degree in Latin and Greek at the College of William and Mary in 1979. He went on to teach at Monelisson Junior High in Amherst county and then to Montessori International High School in Malibu, California.
   Lloyd says he is quite pleased with Tappahannock and Saint Margaret's. He stresses how friendly the people are and how well students are disciplined. He loves the size of the town and the size of his classes.
   His father Robert B. Lloyd is a professor and chairman of the Classics at Randolph-Macon Woman's College, and his mother teaches Latin at Seven Hills School in Lynchburg. Lloyd plans on visiting Europe this summer with the Virgilian Vergilian Society for a study of the classics.

Just For You

Throughout our lives, there will be many people who leave a lasting effect on us. For the Class of 1988, a special person has given all of himself to our class for four years and truly left a special feeling in all of us. To Mr. Lloyd, we dedicate this yearbook. From the ninth grade when we started the idea of selling pizza, to Sophomore Store to Junior Variety and the Junior-Senior Banquet, you have showed determination for each event to become a success. Your hard work towards each project inspired all of us to reach our full potential in everything we do. Most importantly, you have helped unify our class into a real family, especially with the retreat to Camp Hanover this year. With this dedication, we leave you our greatest thanks and, most of all, our love.

Marshall Davies Lloyd Earns
Distinguished Graduate Honors


MARSHALL D. LLOYD
By Hollis W. Duncan
SMS Staff

     Saturday, May 15, St. Margaret's Latin teacher, Marshall Davies Lloyd, received an M.A. in liberal studies from Mary Washington College in Fredericksburg. Lloyd won two high achievement awards given in the school's graduate program and maintained at a 3.9 GPA.
     Lloyd received The Susan J. Hanna Award for most outstanding work in the M.A.L.S. program. Lloyd's final paper Polybius and the Founding Fathers: The Separation of Powers won the Donald E. Glover Award for the most outstanding final project. Polybius ... supports the thesis that the writers of the American Constitution derived their ideas about balancing the legislative, judicial, and executive branches of government from the writings of the ancient Greek historian Polybius. Lloyd's project can be viewed from the SMS website (http:// www.sms.org/ mdl-indx/ polybius/ intro.htm). Lloyd will also be listed in Who's Who Among Students in American Universities and Colleges, which recognizes individual excellence in scholarship, leadership, and service.
     In 1995, Lloyd earned his first M.A. (classics) from The University of Georgia in Athens, where he graduated with distinction and sustained at a 4.0 GPA. Lloyd was awarded a Georgia Classics Summer Institute Teacher Scholarship, in 1994, by The University of Georgia Department of Classics. He received a University-Wide scholarship from the University of Georgia in the same year.
     Lloyd earned a B.A. (classical studies) in 1979 from The College of William and Mary where he was Eta Sigma Phi treasurer, vice president and chapter cofounder of the Student's International Meditation Society, and Sigma Phi Epsilon member.
     Lloyd, an exuberant and devoted academic scholar, is not new to the classics or girl's education. Lloyd, a third generation Latin professor teacher, is the Arts and Foreign Languages Division head in his 17th year at SMS. As a young child, Lloyd traveled with his parents to Italy, visiting classical sites and museums. His father was a professor of classics at Randolph-Macon Woman's College; his mother taught Latin and served as dean of studies at Seven Hills School in Lynchburg.
     Now Lloyd follows his Parents' footsteps as he passionately shares the classics with a new generation of young women at St. Margaret's. In addition, Lloyd trains faculty in technology and computers and helps to coordinate software. Lloyd also enjoys reading, writing, programming, philosophy, genealogy, playing the recorder, and studying the teachings of the ascended masters.
     "Where we are is a product of how we got here. By understanding our past, we prepare for our future. In the age of information, it is proving even more important for students to analyze, synthesize, and draw conclusions from what they read. There is no better place to learn to read critically than in the classics," reports Lloyd.

Kendall Angela Lloyd
All Smiles-Left to right, Lucia and Marshall Lloyd celebrate their first daughter, on June 14.
     Lucia and Marshall Lloyd joyfully announce the birth of their daughter, Kendall Angela, on June 14, 1999. Kendall tipped the scales at 7 lbs., 6 oz., 20 1/2 inches in length.
     Lucia Lloyd, a chaplain at the Medical College of Virginia prior to Kendall's birth, was in labor five hours and delivered at St. Mary's Hospital outside Richmond (Henrico County). "No Drugs!," pointed out Marshall, referring to his wife's decision to forgo an epidural, an anesthetic injection in the epidural space of the spine, in favor of natural birth.
     Most notable, however, is that baby Kendall might be the youngest person to have a personal web page on the internet. At three days old, which happened to coincide with her father's return home, baby Kendall made her cyberspace debut. Kendall's home page (accessed at http://mlloyd.org) features a photo gallery and links to internet cites sites that list the benefits of drug-free child birth.
     "For years, at a time with very few males on campus, I was St. Margaret's veteran bachelor. Many of my former students were surprised when I got married; now with my daughter, it's an even bigger surprise, and certainly a happy one," commended Marshall, who teaches Latin at SMS.

Marshall and Lucia Lloyd enjoy an early morning breakfast with daughter Kendall.
The best seats are in the riverfront corner on the side by the pool. The sun comes slowly over the horizon and casts the pale yellow walls golden in first light. Breakfast is required for all students except seniors. As the girls come in, some ready for the day and some just barely opening their eyes, they are greeted by a faculty member sitting at one of the large round tables with the morning sign-in sheet. Breakfast is also a family affair now that we have opened morning and evening meals to all faculty families, resident and day. With the Aylett Country Day School bus stop in front of the gym, SMS is a great spot for a quick breakfast with no clean up before parents and children go their separate ways.

St. Margaret's Teacher
Earns National Recognition

Yearbook photo 2001-2002
Marshall Davies Lloyd

     Outstanding teachers are the number one thing that parents look for in a school. They'll find it at St. Margaret's, where Latin teacher Marshall Lloyd has been chosen for inclusion in "Who's Who Among America's Teachers 2002."
     "Marshall's selection is especially meaningful," said Head of School Margaret R. Broad, "because it reflects the high level of scholarship that he brings to the high school classroom. It's a positive reflection on SMS, and on the dedication and professionalism of all our faculty."
     Being named to the volume marks a "triple crown" for Lloyd. As a student, the 20-year SMS veteran was chosen for both the high school and college "Who's Who" volumes. He now joins the select 5% of the nation's teachers to be honored by "Who's Who."
     Lloyd was further recognized recently with a National Endowment for the Humanities grant to attend a summer institute for Latin teachers at the College of Notre Dame of Maryland. Titled "Novus Ordo Saeclorum: The Age of Augustus," the course will examine history and literature from 27 BC to 14 AD. Participants will conduct research, attend lectures by classical scholars, participate in seminars, and hone their ability to write Latin prose in the Augustinian style - experiences that Lloyd will share with his students next fall.
     A resident of Tappahannock, Lloyd is a third-generation Latin teacher. He earned his bachelor's degree from the College of William and Mary, a Master of Arts in Liberal Studies from Mary Washington College, and a Master of Arts in classics with distinction from the University of Georgia. Among his honors are awards for top MALS student and best final project at Mary Washington College, and his selection to the Phi Kappa Phi honor society at Georgia.

Peter Navarre Day 2002

St. Margaret's School teacher Marshall Lloyd (second from left), Navarre historian, was a special guest and presenter at the 2002 Peter Navarre Day ceremonies in Toledo, OH. To his left is Robyn Hage, director of Peter Navarre Day. To his right are Terry Breymaier as Robert Navarre and Larry Michaels as Peter Navarre

     St. Margaret's School Latin teacher Marshall Lloyd loves history of all kinds, not just ancient. So when he was invited to give a presentation on famed War of 1812 scout Peter Navarre to elementary school children in Toledo, OH, Lloyd jumped at the chance.

     "I stressed the importance of family history," he said. "I encouraged them to get to know their own grandparents and their families, as well to learn their local history,"

     Lloyd speaks from experience. His interest in his family grew into a web site, <www.mlloyd.org>, which encompasses more than 30,000 individuals, including Navarre. Photos and other historical information gathered by Lloyd were used for the recently published Peter Navarre, War of 1812 Scout: The Man Behind the Legend, which the authors [Larry Michaels and Robyn Hage (pictured above)] dedicated to him. Lloyd's research also has been cited in the publications of Arlington National Cemetery,arlingtoncemetery.com the Congressional Cemetery,congressionalcemetery.org the Statue of Liberty web site and the US State Department.

     Navarre Elementary School observes Peter Navarre Day each fall. In addition to Lloyd's presentation, children heard period music and saw demonstrations by historical re-enactors.

The event commemorates Navarre's bravery on September 9, 1813, when he carried the famous message, "We have met the enemy and they are ours," from Admiral Oliver Hazard Perry across British lines to General William Henry Harrison. His action helped launch the Battle of Lake Erie, one of the pivotal events in the War of 1812.
