We would like to share our appreciation of Amherst Media’s efforts in supporting the graduation exercises for Amherst Regional High School’s Class of 2020. 

With the traditional exercises not available due to public health concerns, Amherst Media staff worked with us to develop alternative plans, which included filming a full day event, then splicing it together into a wonderful, professional video that our students, their families, and the community can view on their channel and online.  

The wonderful celebration of our seniors would not have been possible without the tireless work and expertise of Amherst Media. We are fortunate to have this organization in the local community; we would like to offer our thanks that they stepped us to support our school and students during this difficult time.
