Question
Hello David,
My husband and I are considering moving to Burlington.  We have three children, including a five-year-old son with Down syndrome.  We are really looking for a school district that is inclusive and welcoming to children with disabilities.  Can you give us an idea if Burlington or surrounding areas can meet our needs?

Thanks so much for any help you can provide.

Veronica

Answer
Hi Veronica - My sense is that the short answer to your question is that you'd find The Greater Burlington Area quite welcoming.

Here are some links which may be of some help to you.

All the best, David Beckett
