Which of the following locations is carrying firearms prohibited in Vermont?

  1. National parks

  2. Public schools

  3. Places of worship

  4. Bars and restaurants serving alcohol

The correct answer is: Public schools

Carrying firearms in public schools is prohibited in Vermont due to specific legislation aimed at ensuring the safety of students and staff within educational environments. Schools are considered sensitive places where the presence of firearms is restricted to prevent potential hazards and maintain a secure learning atmosphere. This reflects a broader trend in many jurisdictions to establish safe zones around educational institutions. In contrast, national parks, places of worship, and bars and restaurants serving alcohol generally allow firearms under certain conditions or regulations, with variations depending on other specific local, state, or federal laws. Therefore, the prohibition specifically pertains to public schools, making it the correct choice in this context.
