JS&P – Margaret W. Martin Award
About Margaret W. Martin
Margaret W. Martin was a bold woman in her day…maintaining her full time job, teaching piano, while raising a family of 6 children (4 girls, 2 boys) all while traveling the globe from the States to Saudi Arabia, across Europe and Vientiane Laos during the height of the Vietnam war. She founded the American International School – Riyadh (K-12) in Saudi Arabia in 1963, and it has grown to a mighty institution since then.
