Burlington is a vibrant, picturesque community on Lake Champlain and the most culturally

diverse city in Vermont. Burlington has an international airport, and is in close proximity to a

number of large cities, including Montreal (90 minutes away by car), Boston (45 minutes by

air), and New York City (one hour by air). With our excellent schools system, parks and Lake

Champlain, and local ski mountains within an hour’s drive, it is not surprising that Burlington

routinely finds itself on the “best places in the country to raise children” lists.

The Burlington School District believes a diverse and culturally proficient faculty and staff are

pivotal to the creation of a strong learning environment free of inequities. Accordingly, the

Burlington School District's goal is to provide every student with an educational experience

enhanced by the professional contributions of culturally competent representatives of

different races, ethnicity, gender, physical ability, age and sexual preference.
