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
Heather (Cigich) Hudy is a Conemaugh Township graduate of the class of 2001. She was a student-athlete and lettered in all four years in both basketball and soccer. She was also a two-year letterman in softball.
After graduating high school, she attended Clarion to get her bachelor’s degree in elementary education. There she played basketball, scoring 1,832 points and ranking third in total points and second in rebounds with 1,121. She was also Clarion’s "Athlete of the Year" in 2004, and later inducted into the Clarion Hall of Fame.
After graduating from Clarion, she attended Edinboro to get her master’s degree in special education. She coached the Greater Johnstown girls basketball team and now teaches special education at Greater Johnstown High School. Heather resides in Davisville, Pennsylvania with Asia 17, Xander 17, Maryn 8, and Adler 7.
While Heather loved basketball in college, she has an unforgettable memory of playing in high school. She stated, “I scored 1,886 points and broke the all-time girls basketball score in Conemaugh Township history.” This record still holds. Another fond memory Heather has of high school is class with Mr. Foster. As her biology teacher, Mr. Foster was her favorite teacher because, “He cared about his students not only in school, but generally and athletically as well.”
