Did you know our district offers Culinary Arts, Graphic Design, Early Childhood Education, and AVTF? Students in Culinary Arts train in a restaurant-style kitchen right inside Dalton High, gaining real-world experience in the food industry. In Graphic Design, creativity comes to life as students showcase their designs on clothing and beyond. The Early Childhood Education pathway allows students at The Dalton Academy to work hands-on with our youngest learners, building essential teaching skills. Meanwhile, AVTF (Audio, Video, Technology & Film) encourages students to explore their creativity through filmmaking and podcasting competitions. These career pathways equip students with valuable skills to succeed in college and beyond!
