About Dalton Engineering

In High School Engineering, students learn how to design, build, and program robotic creations. Classes meet twice a week during the school day, but most of the work happens after school in the 13th-floor Engineering and Design Center, which houses a suite of digital fabrication tools, including 3D printers, laser cutters, and CNC machines. Dalton has six robotics teams that participate annually in the FIRST Tech Challenge, an international competition where the rules change each year.
