Amity Regional High School is a regional public high school in Woodbridge, Connecticut. The school serves students in grades 9–12 from Woodbridge, Orange, and Bethany, which comprise Regional School District #5. The name "Amity" derives from the friendship among the three towns in forming the district. Established in 1954, the school was formed when New Haven stopped accepting out-of-town students in its junior high schools.

The school enrolls 1,364 students with a student-teacher ratio of 12 to 1. State test scores show 66% of students are proficient in math and 86% in reading. The graduation rate is 96% and the average SAT score is 1290. U.S. News & World Report ranks Amity #1,549 nationally and Niche ranked it #25 among Connecticut public high schools in 2023. Amity has won 61 CIAC state championships across multiple sports, including seven baseball championships between 2006 and 2024 under longtime coach Sal Coppola, who holds the Connecticut record for most state championships with seven. The school's theater program has won Best Musical at the Stephen Sondheim Awards three times.
