Hi. I"m not in VT, but I also have a child with some special needs. Greatschools is a nationwide forum, and the chance of finding another person from the same town with a child of similar age is slim. I always recommend that people contact a local support group for whatever condition their child has (ie, www.chadd.org for ADHD, www.interdys.org for reading problems and dyslexia, www.autismspeaks.org for spectrum disorders, etc.) and network through those families to find out about the best schools and other resources in the area.
For general questions, you might also like to join Greatschools Learning and Attention Difficulties Group at community.greatschools.net/groups/11554
