Welcome to Our School!

On March 13, the SADD club joined together at Conemaugh Township Elementary school to help with reading night. Reading night is a fun-filled event where students have the opportunity to go to the elementary school and participate in many different activities. Some of these activities include a book fair, games, and crafts. The SADD club had their own room where they taught and helped students create their own Hawaiian leis. Towards the end of this month, the SADD club will be holding some activities for students participating in the PSSAs. In order to destress, they will be making stress balls using rice and flour. Jema Calasara, the co-head of the Mental Health committee states, “Last year during finals week, we made stress balls for finals week. It was a great way for us to destress, and gave us an opportunity to focus our energy in different ways.”

On April 25, 2025, Conemaugh Township will be holding its annual semiformal. This dance is open to students in grades 7 through 9. Throughout the night, there will be dancing, music, and snacks available. This event was made possible by Mrs. Sanderson and the Junior High Student Council. The council members include President Leah Kordell, Vice President Gemma Studer, Secretary Molly Hunsberger, and Treasurer Abram Mayak. When asked about why CT has this dance Mrs. Sanderson states, “We have this dance to give students the chance to have fun. It’s during the PSSA testing week so it gives them time to de-stress with their friends.”
