“Baltimore is blessed with a number of Jewish community high schools, but Cardin ... is open to the whole community, with a pluralistic curriculum as well as a pluralist student body," he said.

Most recently, Prashker worked at Temple Sinai of North Dade/Jacobson Sinai Academy in Miami, the release states. He’s held teaching, administrative and directorial positions in the United Kingdom, Canada and the United States.
