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

Gillian Berloffe graduated from Conemaugh Township High School in 2021. Gillian grew up in Davidsville, Pennsylvania, and is the daughter of Dave and Vicki Berloffe, and a big sister to Cameron Berloffe. She attended Slippery Rock University and majored in communications with a double concentration in integrated marketing and digital media production.

During her time there, she was the Copy/Web Editor of The Rocket, which is SRU’s student-run, independent newspaper. She was also a member of the Public Relations Student Society of America (PRSSA) and worked for the Student Public Relations and Outreach Coordinator for the Bailey Library on campus. Gillian graduated this past spring and received a bachelor’s degree in communications. After college, she interned at the Allegheny County Executive’s Office with Executive Sara Innamorato’s communications team. Looking forward, she is searching for a full-time communications or marketing job and starting her career. Gillian told us that one of the teachers she looked up to was Mrs. Custer. She said, “I always loved her classes, and I learned so much in them. I think I use a lot of what I learned in psychology, sociology, and global studies in my day-to-day life. I also always loved the welcoming environment she created for students in her classroom and the way she exposed so many of us to different cultures and ways of thinking.” She said that her favorite memory from attending Conemaugh Township was performing in Conemaugh Township’s production of Mamma Mia , her senior year. Although the pandemic prevented a full house from seeing the show each night, she was so proud of the show the entire cast put on. She said, “I’ll never forget how it felt as the audience cheered us on during the curtain call at the final show.”
