I actually scheduled my appointment last night, just after midnight, right after I received an email from VAMS,” Burden, a Shelton High senior, said. “The earliest appointment I could schedule wasn t until this summer, but I m hoping to be able to find a way to get vaccinated sooner than that.”

The happy surprise was the result of a collaboration between several Fairfield high school and middle school groups.
