About the School
Dundalk High School is located on Delvale Avenue in Dundalk, which is in the southeast part of Baltimore County and has roots back to 1888. In 1946, the former junior-senior high school building was opened. As the area's population grew, there was great need for a new high school. The high school building was originally built in 1959.[2]
In 2010, the school district began construction on a new building to replace the aging infrastructure. The new facility opened on August 26, 2013, and houses both Dundalk High School and Sollers Point Technical High School.[3]
