CTASD Alumni

For the past 75 years, we have been educating students who’ve used the skills they learned at CTASD to succeed in life. We are proud of our graduates and want to extend an invitation to them to reconnect with former classmates, network with current and retired professionals, and influence the next generation coming out of Conemaugh.

Each month we will showcase the successes of our alumni by highlighting a different graduate or graduating class. While success looks different in different situations, we want to create an opportunity to acknowledge the thread that ties them all together.

Alumni Highlight

Charles Carrico is a Conemaugh Township graduate of the class of 1943. During his senior year, he left school at the age of 17 to enter military service. Charles grew up in Jerome and is now a resident of Davidsville. While at the school, his favorite teacher was Mr. Trexler. One of Charles's favorite memories was being a member of the basketball team and the boxing team. He enjoyed going to matches and team bonding.

He went into the United States Navy field during World War II, and he retired from Bethlehem Steel a few years after getting out of the army. Charles's kids and grandchildren all attended Conemaugh Township. Charles states, “I love going to all of their sporting events and activities at the school.”

A few years later, while attending a Veteran’s Day program at the elementary school, he received a high school diploma. He was very appreciative of them honoring of him since he could not attend his graduation due to being enlisted in the military and taking the time to award him and give him his diploma.
