Norman Hammoud Scholarship

This scholarship fund was created in honor of Norman Hammound, a former teacher and student of the Dearborn Public Schools. Mr. Hammoud was an all star football player at Fordson High School and went on to win two MAC championships at Bowling Green State University. Football helped play an important role in shaping his life and helping him become the man he was. Mr. Hammoud was best known for his strength, dedication, kind, and generous personality. His nickname became the “gentle giant” among his peers. After football, Mr. Hammoud became an elementary school teacher in order to help others have better opportunities. His passion for teaching was obvious to all those that were lucky enough to experience it. Through this scholarship fund, Mr. Hammoud’s dreams of helping students excel in sports and academics will live on.
