In this episode of Mustang Moments, Superintendent Dr. R.J. Webber sits down with former school board member, local historian, and community champion Martha Nield.

Educational Milestones: How Martha and a small group of parents advocated to bring the very first Advanced Placement (AP) classes to Northville High School.
District Leadership: Reflections on her time on the school board, navigating bond elections for the high school, and contributing to initiatives like International Baccalaureate (IB), the Northville Educational Foundation, and the Galileo Leadership Academy.
Fun & Personal Touch: Rapid-fire questions covering local dining spots, a dream trip to Iceland, and her surprising family connection to the Mayflower.
