   When the stage lights dimmed at South Burlington High School, the stage finally cleared and the excited
parents, grandparents, contestants, family members and contestants moved outside, newly crowned Miss  Vermont Jeanelle Achee and Miss Vermont’s Outstanding Teen Chloe Johnson looked at each other
