The South Bend Community School Corporation has a new board member.
Maritza Robles is taking the spot vacated by Stephanie Spivey.
She is so excited to continue the improvement of schools.
"I believe that we will continue to move this ship in the right direction upstream and those test scores will be where they have to be to represent all our kids," said Maritza Robles.
Robles has been working in the school system for more than 30 years, but says she still has the energy and passion to continue in this new capacity.
She says it's all about the kids.
