Duanesburg Central School proudly celebrates 15 seniors who not only earned their high school diplomas, but also successfully completed their respective Career and Technical Education (CTE) programs through Capital Region BOCES.
In addition to completing their CTE programs, all 15 graduates earned a Career & Technical Endorsement, a distinction that recognizes students who have met rigorous technical skill standards, demonstrated proficiency in their chosen career pathway, and completed valuable work-based learning experiences.
Ten seniors attended CTE programs at the BOCES Schoharie campus, while five seniors completed their programs at the BOCES Albany campus.
Eleven members of the CTE Class of 2026 received accolades from the New York State Comptroller’s Office. The award recognizes students who excel academically and who show “leadership potential by volunteering his or her time to serve their school and/or community.” Genevieve Rickert was the lone recipient of the accolade at BOCES’ Schoharie CTE Campus.
