Thank you for inspiring our future healthcare professionals!

This week, the library is honoring Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. through words and action. Stop by, reflect, and be part of the legacy.

UPAL academy students were trained by industry profesional from Water Co. The experience is second to none, and their level of sponsorship and commitment to Lakeland is truly remarkable. Thank you Rich!!
