HISTORY
Unique among the fifty state associations functioning within our national borders, the Connecticut Association of Schools (formerly the Connecticut Association of Secondary Schools) was created in 1953 through the merger of the Connecticut Association of Secondary School Principals and the Connecticut Interscholastic Athletic Conference. Why unique? Because unlike most states which have one association devoted to professional programs for principals and another devoted to athletic and extra-curricular activities for students, CAS is a single organization serving schools, their students and staff, in all areas of operation.
CAS is a non-profit, tax-exempt educational organization. It is affiliated with the National Federation of State High School Associations (NFHS), the National Association of Secondary School Principals (NASSP), the National Middle School Association (NMSA), and the National Association of Elementary School Principals (NAESP).
In July 2000, CAS completed a historic merger with the Elementary and Middle School Principals' Association of Connecticut (EMSPAC), a non-profit organization serving CT's elementary and middle school principals. By creating a single principals' organization and bringing all schools under one umbrella, the merger allowed CAS to achieve the following:

The Connecticut River Education Initiative (CREI)
Project Summary:
A groundbreaking educational and telecommunications initiative. CREI taps the Connecticut River watershed, a regional natural resource, for the benefit of teachers and students across the four-state region. With many lessons to be gleaned from studying the river valley, CREI gives teachers the skills and resources to bring these lessons to their classrooms, incorporating subjects ranging from geography, math, and environmental science to history, visual arts and poetry. CREI is a collaborative project consisting of a uniquely fluid partnership of non-profit educational institutions including PBS stations, museums, schools and environmental agencies from four New England states.
Goals:
  • Provide students with a “sense of place” in their natural and built community. Encourage K-12 educators and their students to utilize the Connecticut River watershed for project-based interdisciplinary learning as part of their classroom curriculum.

    * Offering high school students and teachers involvement in the Vermont
    Envirothon, part of a national program to increase hands-on nature/science/ community learning.

    School Composting…The Next Step in Recycling
    A Manual for Connecticut Schools
    In Brief This manual, written specifically for K-12 schools, outlines the steps necessary for establishing and maintaining a successful school-wide composting program for cafeteria food scraps. The manual is written by and based on the experiences of a group of dedicated educators who have developed the composting program at Mansfield Middle School. We are grateful to the Town of Mansfield for the groundbreaking work that they have done in both implementing a model school recycling and composting program, and producing this manual. The CT DEP funded the production of the manual to provide a model for Connecticut schools…to help them reduce their waste steam, increase recycling, and to teach students about responsible waste management and the environmental advantages of composting. In the manual you will find strategies for initiating a compost plan, bin design, routine steps of the composting operation, promotional activities, as well as an exhaustive section on lessons and resources. Specific information about what worked well at Mansfield Middle School has been incorporated throughout the manual in special call-out boxes. For waste reduction purposes, the manual has only been reproduced in electronic format. It is available to
