She has spent the last three years living in Valencia, Spain teaching at a local elementary and middle school.

Vermont Day School is pleased to announce the addition of a Merit Scholarship program for prospective students entering 3rd, 4th and 5th grades. Scholarships are awarded to motivated learners with strong academic skills, who exemplify the guiding principles of Vermont Day School.
Vermont Day School is proud to have provided in person learning during the global pandemic, but recognizes the need of students who experienced learning loss due to COVID in other school settings. We hope that merit scholarship awards will be a Vermont Day School education more accessible to more families in our community.
See the Merit Scholarship Program page for more details and to apply!
