Dalton High School has provided me with a wonderful experience these past two years. The school has numerous opportunities between its 10+ AP courses, IB Diploma Program, tons of athletic teams that commonly go to region or state, and its abundance of clubs, pathways, and excellent teachers and staff. Truly a lovely place to attend grades 10-12.
