Martha’s Vineyard Regional High School seniors are pursuing a variety of goals after they graduate in June, with college joining a mix of other choices, director of guidance John Fiorito said.

The class of 2022 was lauded for its depth of character, hard work and perseverance Sunday afternoon as families and friends crowded beneath the soaring roof of the Tabernacle.

Ingrid Moore, 2022 valedictorian, and Hardy Eville, 2022 salutatorian, have been classmates since sixth grade at the West Tisbury School.

Valedictorian was not on Ingrid Moore’s mind throughout her four years at the Martha’s Vineyard Regional High School. Instead she focused on getting good grades so she could have options.

For the Martha’s Vineyard Regional High School class of 2022, the last four years featured a relatively normal freshman year followed by a distinctly abnormal sophomore year at the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic.
