Greetings Pioneers,
I’m happy to announce Mr. Hussein Beydoun as Assistant Principal Interim. He was previously a social studies teacher at EFHS and has served in various leadership roles. He will be working with students whose last name starts with C-K.
Our newly hired assistant principal is someone you may know very well – Ms. Lena Abdrabboh. She formerly taught Biology and AP Biology at DHS. She has also served in different leadership roles throughout her years here at DHS. Ms. Abdrabboh will be assigned to work with students whose last name starts with L-Z.
Please be sure to give them a warm Pioneer welcome when you see them around! We are very excited to have them join our administrative team.
