Celebrate America's 250th with us!  

We are excited to share that on Tuesday, May 12, Dalton Local Schools will hold a district-wide spring activity for all K–12 students and staff titled “Red, White and Blue; Bulldogs Through and Through.” This will be our second district-wide activity of the school year, bringing our entire district together to celebrate wellness, school spirit, community, and the upcoming 250th birthday of the United States.

Thanks to our incredible donors for making sure that all students and staff will receive a commemorative event t-shirt as we gather together as a district. 

We are offering this commemorative t-shirt to be purchased by parents, grandparents, and community members so you can celebrate with us.  Shirts are $10 each.  All proceeds from the sale of these shirts will benefit the Wellness Program at Dalton Local Schools.
