Teachers work tirelessly to develop and positively influence the minds of our children. With the 2015/16 school year now behind us, it's time to thank them for their dedication and passion. 

Tuesday afternoon was full of great food and smiles as Lite Rock hosted their annual Teacher of the Year Banquet at Angelo's Fairmont Tavern in Atlantic City. All of this year's Teacher of the Month recipients were honored and we even gave away a scholarship!

Congratulations to all the teachers and a special congratulations to the Lite Rock Teacher of the Year, Sharon House from Slaybaugh Elementary in Egg Harbor Township and her nominating student, Katrina, who wins a $2,000 scholarship!

Here's to an outstanding 2015/2016 school year!
