Last year, Palm Beach Lakes Community High School had its share of “firsts”–the school’s first female principal, first girls basketball state championship title, first set of 5 Carat exclusive tours, first time for FirstFridays@PBL, among many, many other trailblazing Ram events.

This year, for the first time, the Medical Academy at PBL has a male medical teacher–Michael Martinez, EMT-P.  Yes, Mr. Martinez is an Emergency Medical Technician who has brought the EMR program and classes to Lakes.  The dynamics of the school and the academy are changing, and this one change adds to the diversity of the instructors in the Medical Academy.

Mr. Martinez comes to us from Lake Shore Middle School in Belle Glade where he was instrumental in building the EMR program.  The academy is elated to have Michael as a part of the Medical and HOSA family at PBL.
