Profile
Integrated Arts Academy School is in need of a Long-Term General Education Teacher for First Grade.
Burlington is a vibrant, picturesque community on Lake Champlain and the most culturally
diverse city in Vermont. Burlington has an international airport and is close to several 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 school 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.
