The Hawk family mourns the passing of longtime Social Science Teacher Jim Disbennett, who passed away last week due to complications related to leukemia. A memorial service will be held on Monday, November 12th at 6:00 p.m. in the EDHS gym; all are welcome to attend. EDHS spirit attire is encouraged.

In lieu of flowers, the Disbennett family has requested that donations be made to a legacy scholarship that will be established to honor Mr. Disbennett's impact on a generation of students. Details may be obtained by contacting Sunshine Cavalluzzi at [email protected].
