Message from Dr. De La Torre regarding the passing of EHS graduate
It is with somber hearts that the YISD Board of Trustees and I extend our deepest condolences and prayers to the family and loved ones of Eddie Cruz, a 2019 graduate from Eastwood High School. Eddie was a talented football player, a beloved friend, and a wonderful role model at Eastwood, and news of his passing over the Labor Day weekend has stunned and saddened the school community. To aid our students, staff, and faculty in coping with this heartbreaking news, counselors are on site at Eastwood High School and will continue to be available for those who need extra help in dealing with this tragedy. We send our earnest wishes for comfort, peace, and strength to Eddie’s family, friends, and loved ones during this difficult time.
Dr. Xavier De La Torre, Superintendent of Schools
