The deadline for nominations for the 2016-17 ARMS Educator Award has been extended to enable all who are interested submit nominations. The new deadline is Friday, May 5, 2017. Nominations may be submitted by students, parents, staff, and community members. The annual award honors an educator who embodies the ARMS core values and demonstrates their commitment to supporting their colleagues, their students, and their community. Although the award recognizes only one individual each year, the process helps raise community awareness of the wonderful ARMS staff and the activities and accomplishments of the middle school community as a whole.
We are the Parent/ Guardian Organization for the Amherst Regional Middle School. We strive to create a supportive and welcoming community for students, their families, teachers and administration by hosting events, organizing programs that foster a productive and positive environment; be a resource for information and engagement; and funding academic and ARMS community initiatives.

Starlight's Les Miserables
Do You Hear the People Sing? Award winning musical Les Miserables school edition performed by Amherst's own Brandon Dallmann as Jean Valjean, Shannon Lambert as Madame Thenardier, Sophie Schweik as Fantine and many other local talent from Starlight’s Youth Theatre, which was established 10 years ago as a non-profit youth theater in the Valley. Artistic Director Cynthia Strycharz, 30 year veteran director states “In Les Mis we learn that love and compassion are the most important gifts one person can give another and that always displaying these qualities should be the most important goal in life. I’m so proud of the cast and how they are demonstrating those same qualities to each other. You will be brought to tears by the emotions they bring to this performance.” Truly a timely musical in this age of resistance.
