Vermont Commons School

Founded in 1997, the Vermont Commons School is an independent college preparatory school for grades 7-12. We are located in South Burlington in a modern building right next to the 200 acres of orchards and fields of the UVM Horticultural Farm. In addition to classrooms and offices, there are fully equipped professional Chemistry and Biology laboratories; 4500 square foot Commons Room for plays, performances, exhibits, and general student use; computers networked together with Internet access, e-mail, scanner, printers, graphics and research software; and a room specifically for art and graphics. Students and faculty members are away from campus regularly doing experiments, collecting data, drawing and journaling, and applying what they learn in the classrooms to real world situations.
