Churchland High School teacher to be honored by Urban League of Hampton Roads

Churchland High School Science Teacher Isaiah Marriner will be honored as a “Rising Leader” by The Urban League of Hampton Roads. Marriner will be one of just eight distinguished leaders to be honored at the organization’s 37th Annual Martin Luther King Jr. Community Leaders Event.

According to the Urban League, the annual event, held on Dr. King’s birthday, recognizes his life and legacy, and presents awards to those dedicated to social justice, community service/volunteerism, health, workforce development, leadership and philanthropy. Specifically, Marriner and his fellow seven honorees were selected because they “promote positive images, exemplify community service, demonstrate the values modeled by Dr. King and show evidence of the impact their contributions make on the lives of others in the Hampton Roads community.”

“Now more than ever, our community, our region and our nation are facing an uncertain future, but we are committed to moving forward together into 2021 and the honorees for our event in January are leading the way,” Gilbert Bland, Urban League of Hampton Roads president and CEO, said in a press release. “We invite everyone to learn how the Urban League collaborates with our community to empower and to support social initiatives throughout the Hampton Roads region.”
