Martin County High School is excited to welcome Lisa Barry to our Mathematics Department! 📐➕📊
A South Florida native, Ms. Barry earned her B.S. cum laude from the University of Florida and later completed an M.Div. in Chicago. She has called the Treasure Coast home for the past 24 years and has dedicated much of her career since 2008 to education, specializing in mathematics instruction and exam preparation.

"Please brush up on your skills this summer! You have access to incredible learning tools such as IXL, College Board's Question of the Day, Bluebook, Khan Academy, Duolingo, and Chrome Read&Write. Just 10 minutes of practice twice a day can help prevent the summer slump and set you up for success this school year!"
