The Heritage Conference welcomed yet another new member from the WestPAC on Tuesday. The following is a statement issued by Heritage Conference President Jody Rainey.
The Conemaugh Township Board of School Directors voted to approve membership for their school to the Heritage Conference. This follows a unanimous vote held by the Heritage Conference last week to accept Conemaugh Township as their twelfth member school.
Conemaugh Township will begin conference play for athletics in the 2023-2024 school year. Conemaugh Township can participate in Heritage Academic and Arts programs and competitions as early as 2022-2023.
Heritage Conference President Jody Rainey said, “Conemaugh Township is a great addition to our conference. The values and goals of their leadership team mesh perfectly with the mission of our conference. We are excited to have them as a willing partner to create positive and enriching experiences for the students of our conference schools.”
Jim Foster, Principal of Conemaugh Township High School commented, the Heritage Conference not only provides our student-athletes competitive opportunities, but the Heritage also provides unique opportunities and the platform for all Conemaugh Township students to share and grow their talents in the academics and arts. Being inclusive, recognizing and celebrating all students made the decision to join the Heritage Conference the best decision for Conemaugh Township. We look forward to contributing to the continued success of the Heritage Conference.”
Portage and Conemaugh Valley also recently left the WestPAC to join the Heritage Conference. Portage will officially begin competing in the conference in the 2022-2023, and Conemaugh Valley is set to join the Heritage Conference for the 2023-24 school year.
