The school is located in the beautiful village of Johnson, on the St. Johnsbury and Lake Champlain Railroad. Good connections from St. Johnsbury with the Boston and Maine, and at Burlington and Essex Junction on the Central Vermont, via Cambridge Junction. As the location for a Normal School, Johnson has several decided advantages. Aside from the fact that the people of the town are exceedingly loyal to the school, Johnson is a live, clean town with excellent city water and electricity. Then, too, educators everywhere acknowledge the gain to the student from contact with all that is best and purest in nature at a time in life when life's standards are being set and life's ideals are being formed. Johnson, lying in the embrace of the northern ranges of the Green mountains, offers to the student rivers for skating, fields and hills for snow-shoeing, Mansfield and Sterling for climbing, an abundance of wild flowers and birds for study, and the cordial support of a community willing to contribute in an unusual degree to the successful maintenance of a Normal School.
