South Burlington is very good- probably best 0on academics. My stepson went there and thrived. Burlington is a mess for various reasons. That's all I have personal knowledge of.

ASPCA. My downstairs neighbor left his dog alone in the apartment for three days. It was taken away a few days later. I think I called the police, but they're understaffed. I think they may have been there for the actual removal of the dog, but ASPCA did the footwork. Excellent people!

If you're anywhere near a Walmart you can sign up for Straight Talk- I'm paying $35 a month.
