About A.R.P.S. United

We are a group of concerned, responsible people, who support and believe strongly in the safe reopening of the public education in ARPS, Amherst Regional Public Schools. We may have/be students, loved ones, friends, family, neighbors, or some connection to/with the Amherst Regional School System. We have respect for our Teachers, Administrators and School Committee, but we believe that we need to have a voice for our children and families, who have not been able to actively participate and be a part of an “outside the box” solution in this tough time. We have systems in place that are not conducive to such creative problem-solving, so we would like to respectfully support and contribute to the process while keeping the needs of ALL students, staff, families and community involved.  We are a community of intelligent people, who are kind, caring, hard-working, and compassionate. We concede that it is impossible to find a solution that will satisfy every student’s unique situation, but we do believe that we can do better if we all work together, we are transparent, and accountable. our efforts to make a measurable difference in the lives of others.
