Quotes
“Children who grow up with a joy in the work which interests them will be likely to find that interest useful in their later life. “
Helen Parkhurst
Philosophy
How they teach
The Dalton School is committed to providing an education of excellence that meets each student’s interests, abilities, and needs within a common curricular framework and reflects and promotes an understanding of, and appreciation for, diversity in our community as an integral part of school life. Dalton challenges each student to develop intellectual independence, creativity and curiosity and a sense of responsibility toward others both within the School and in the community at large. Guided by the Dalton Plan, the School prepares students to “Go Forth Unafraid.”
Outcomes
Where students go
A Dalton education unfolds a world of opportunity over a lifetime, and we are committed to ensuring that a socioeconomically diverse group of students has access to the Dalton experience. We believe in a tuition that covers essential school programming, transparency in costs so families know what to expect, and a financial aid program that fully meets the needs of a family.
Over 20% of our student body attends Dalton with the support of more than $15 million in need-based financial aid. We are grateful to our generous community and strong endowment, which allow us to execute our commitment to an accessible Dalton education.

“The second principle of the Dalton Laboratory Plan is co-operation or, as I prefer to call it, the interaction of group life…A school cannot reflect the social experience which is the fruit of community life unless all its parts, or groups, develop those intimate relations one with the other and that interdependence which, outside school, binds men and nations together. “
