Thank you for following along as we celebrated National School Counseling Week! We asked our counselors, ‘What inspires you most about being a school counselor?’ Here’s what Dolores Carillo, counselor at The Dalton Academy, had to say: "What inspires me most about being a school counselor is the opportunity to make a real difference in the lives of our students and their families. I understand the unique cultural dynamics and challenges that many of our students face, whether it's navigating language barriers, family expectations, or the pressures of living in two worlds. Being able to guide them through these challenges, while also celebrating their rich cultural heritage, is incredibly fulfilling. What also inspires me is the deep sense of community that we have within our school. It’s not just about supporting students academically or emotionally....it’s about building strong, trusting relationships with families and being an advocate for our community. Many of our students come from backgrounds where support systems might not always be accessible, and to be someone they can rely on feels like a privilege. Watching them grow, succeed, and thrive, knowing that I’ve had a hand in their journey, is the most rewarding part of my job."

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!
