Directions to Rock Point School

From Interstate 89 Take Exit 14W (Vermont’s only four-leaf-clover interchange) which will place you on Williston Road, heading west towards Burlington, amidst the usual array of fast food, motels and car dealers. Williston Road will incline upwards to the University of Vermont Campus and turn itself into Main Street. Continue down Main Street into Burlington, heading towards Lake Champlain. You may notice the Champlain College Campus on your left. This part is composed mainly of original buildings converted to college use. SEE PART B



From U.S. Route 7 heading North: Remain on Route 7 as it enters Burlington and turns itself into Shelburne Road. Travel north to the rotary (by the Gulf and Mobil stations) bear right, up the hill on South Willard Street. Go straight on South Willard Street until you come to the intersection with Main Street. Turn left (west) down the hill towards Lake Champlain. SEE PART B

PART B: At the bottom of Main Street, turn right (north) onto Battery Street. This will take you up the hill past the Wyndam Hotel and Saint Paul’s Episcopal Cathedral (boxy, concrete, very fireproof architecture) to Battery Park on your left. Bear left around the park (bandshell, Native American statue, Burlington Police Station on your left) and the street bears right, continuing North and calling itself North Avenue. Puzzle at the next intersection how North Avenue and North Street could maintain a right angle intersection and not suffer some sort of compass spat. The next light will be at the top of a small rise. Turn left on Institute Road (west, towards the lake again), passing through the Burlington High School campus (track on the left, brick buildings on the right.) At the bottom of Institute Road turn right through a brick and iron gate. There is a blue sign listing the school and other institutions here on the property. As you drive up the (one-lane two-way) road you will see the school building on the left. Parking is available on your right, just as you pass the school, and then again on the right, just past the Dean of Students? house.

Please call 802-863-1104 if these directions have landed you somewhere other than where you want to be.
