• TOURS UPDATE

  Spring Tours Update:
  
  

  While we had hoped to be able to conduct Spring Tours, the COVID-19 virus has made this impossible. For this reason we have had to cancel all such tours. 
  
  

  Please know that we look forward to meeting you and your child in the fall and being able to provide tours at that time. 
  
  

  Until then all of us at Dalton wish you and your family a peaceful, safe, and healthy spring. 

   

  Fall Tours:  are available once you have applied.  Applications will be available in mid-August through mid-November. (Date TBD)
  
  

  IMPORTANT: These are uncertain times when we are all striving to limit the spread of COVID-19 to keep you and our community safe and healthy. We ask the following of you: 
   

  PLEASE DO NOT ATTEND TOUR/VISIT IF:

  • Either you or a family member is feeling ill, especially if experiencing symptoms such as fever, shortness of breath, or coughing;
  • You have recently traveled to a high risk country with large outbreaks of coronavirus. The Center for Disease Control is maintaining such a list. It is frequently updated so we recommend you check the status of a country to which you have traveled.

  Your health and our community’s are our primary goal.   Making the decision not to attend a Tour/Visit will in no way affect your child’s eventual admissions process---as a matter of fact we will be most grateful for your honesty and for your thoughtfulness.

  Please know that we have every intention of conducting tours/visits, however, in the event that it seems prudent or necessary to cancel them, we will do so and contact you before your scheduled visit.

   

  It is very important that EACH parent bring ID to all Dalton visits.
