Opportunities
Make a difference in a child’s life by volunteering in the Dalton Public Schools. Opportunities abound for those who enjoy working directly with children and those who prefer to be behind the scenes. Individuals and groups are welcome.
Some of the ways you can help out include:
- reading to a child
- assisting a teacher
- helping in the office
- supporting a special event
- tutoring students
- leading a facility improvement project
Each school in our system has unique needs and service opportunities for volunteers. Call the school office or visit the school’s website to learn more.
