Capital Area School Development Association (CASDA)’s annual recognition program honors the outstanding graduating seniors from high schools throughout the region. Recognized students are chosen by their schools on the basis of academic achievements, community service and leadership to their schools or communities, or other unique accomplishments. Each nominated student then selects a teacher who has had a significant influence on their education. Congratulations to Schuylerville High School senior Sadie Tavares, who in turn, selected Mr. Dave Conneally as a teacher to recognize.
