Good by Mr Martinez


One of our best has left us for a new place and a new position. Mr Martinez has gone to Pasco HS. He will now teach and inspire a new group of students in a new location, but he will always be remember here, with us, in our hearts.


He was our teacher, our mentor, our counselor. He believed in us and was there for us when others wouldn't stand by us. When we needed him he became our shoulder to cry on, our chauffer, our chaperone, but mostly our friend. He will be missed, and we await the day when he returns to teach us once more.
