High School
A secondary school, high school, or senior school, is an institution that provides secondary education. Some secondary schools provide both ''lower secondary education'' (ages 11 to 14) and ''upper secondary education'' (ages 14 to 18), i.e., both levels 2 and 3 of the ISCED scale, but these can also be provided in separate schools. There may be other variations in the provision: for example, children in Australia, Hong Kong, and Spain change from the primary to secondary systems a year later at the age of 12, with the ISCED's first year of lower secondary being the last year of primary provision. In the United States, most local secondary education systems have separate middle schools and high schools. Middle schools are usually from grades 6–8 or 7–8, and high schools are typically from grades 9–12. In the United Kingdom, most state schools and privately funded schools accommodate pupils between the ages of 11 and 16 or between 11 and 18; some UK privat ...

Dalton High School (Ohio)
Dalton High School is a public high school in Dalton, Ohio. It is the only high school in the Dalton Local Schools district. Their nickname is the Bulldogs. The principal of the school is Mr. Steve Watkins. Athletics Dalton's football team has a long rivalry with both the Chippewa Chipps and the Rittman Indians, both of which run back to their first meetings in 1925 and 1924 respectively. This dates back to when the Wayne County B League only had four teams from Apple Creek, Doylestown (Chippewa), Rittman, and Dalton.

Due to the recent success of all three teams, Dalton's strongest rivalry games as of late have been with the Smithville Smithies and the Waynedale Golden ...
