The Dalton Academy

Dalton Public Schools is excited to announce the recent addition of disc golf courses to each of its schools, thanks to a collaborative effort with Prodigy Disc and Cyra's Simple Goodness. The initiative, aimed at promoting physical fitness and positive mental health among students and staff, has been met with enthusiasm from the community.

It was an incredibly exciting and successful fall season for the Dalton Public Schools. Dalton High School, The Dalton Academy, Dalton Junior High, and Hammond Creek had a fantastic fall. Thank you to all our amazing coaches, athletic directors, administrators, parents, community members and especially our student athletes for all your hard work and dedication. I have always believed that the Fall sets the tone for the entire school year. I am so excited to see what our winter and spring sports accomplish this year.

Dalton Public Schools recently had the pleasure of hosting members from the Education Senate in Berlin for a tour of our schools. 

The visit, organized in collaboration with the Checkpoint Charlie Foundation and The School Teachers Enrichment Program (STEP), aimed to provide the guests with insights into the United States education system and a firsthand experience of our school environments.

The Dalton Academy recently hosted a heartwarming send-off celebration in honor of one of its outstanding seniors, Andy Reynoso. Reynoso, an integral member of the "Puma Nation," has demonstrated remarkable leadership, talent, and dedication to his team and school throughout his high school career.

As a testament to his hard work and commitment, Reynoso has earned the opportunity to take his soccer career to the next level in Argentina. He will depart tomorrow for Mendoza, Argentina, where he has garnered the interest of two prominent teams, Godoy Cruz and Independiente Rivadavia. Reynoso is poised to showcase his exceptional soccer talents on the international stage.
