Beach High Graduate Doing Good by Serving the Community

A recent Beach High School graduate continues to serve the community by becoming a paramedic.  In the healthcare profession of emergency medical care, A. E. Beach High School graduate, Wilmer Ruiz has achieved a significant milestone by becoming a paramedic in the state of Georgia.

While still enrolled in high school, Wilmer finished the Emergency Medical Responder (EMR) course at Beach in the Spring of 2024.  That is where his love for the healthcare profession began.  He continued his training that summer by enrolling in an EMT program. He graduated as an EMT in August 2024 after successfully completing the certification exam.

To put his training into practice and continue his study, Ruiz worked as an EMT in the community throughout his senior year while still at Beach High School.  His dedication to emergency care did not cease there. In March 2025, Ruiz began paramedic school, and this month, he obtained certification as a paramedic.

By becoming a paramedic in the state of Georgia, he has continued to BARK LOUD as a Beach High Bulldog and let success be his noise!  Ruiz’s accomplishments reflect both his dedication to emergency medical services and his commitment to serving the community.
