Dalton School Archives

About the Archives

The Dalton School Archives appraises, preserves, and makes accessible the primary source materials of enduring value that document The Dalton School’s history and organization from its establishment in 1919 to the present.  Our collections include student and school publications, photographs, oral histories, correspondence, meeting minutes, reports, curricula, event programs, video recordings, memorabilia, and more.

  • Many of the Archives’ resources have been digitized and are being added to the Archives Digital Collections database as they become available.  Members of the Dalton community may login to access the Digital Collections via the “Search the Digital Collections” link above.
  • The Dalton School Archives’ collections (physical and digital) are searchable through our online catalog database (see “Search the Archives Catalog” above).
  • A History of Dalton in 101 Objects was created for Dalton's Centennial Celebration in 2019. To access, click the link above.

The Dalton School Archives Office is located in the Goldman Library on the 4th floor of 108 East 89th Street, New York, NY 10128.
