Ask Carlos Pruna how to keep students interested in a subject they didn't expect to like, and he'll tell you a teacher's passion for the subject makes the learning contagious.  Mr Pruna, a geometry teacher for the last 18 years at Cape May Technical High School in Cape...May Court House, is our final Lite Rock teacher of the Month for the 2011-2012 school year.

His nominating student,  Will House, becomes the final qualifier for a $2000 scholarship from Lite Rock for telling us about Mr. Pruna in his nomination. You can hear Will's nomination and my conversation with Carlos Pruna on the Lite Rock morning Show by clinking the audio link below.

For his  selection as the Lite rock teacher of the Month, Carlos Pruna will receive a membership to Island Gym and a massage and facial form Dr. Lyle M. Back.

Mr. Pruna and his student Will House and guests will be invited to the the Lite Rock Teacher of the Year Banquet later this month, at which time the winning teacher will be revealed and the nominating student will receive $2000 in scholarship money from Lite Rock.

We remain committed to recognizing excellent South Jersey teachers, year after year, with Lite Rock's Teacher of the Month,  on South Jersey's number one at-work radio station, lite Rock 96.9 WFPG.
