DISSTON DRAGONS

The Hamilton Disston Dragon’s Club was founded in September of 1996. The mission of the club is to “Make Disston a Little Bit Better Today Than It Was Yesterday.” To become a Dragon is to aspire to the highest level of student recognition. Our Dragons act as role models and examples of positive behavior at school, home and in the community. They help to create and maintain a positive school climate, where students can learn and grow to their fullest potential.

Students who display the qualities of Respect, Responsibility, & Reliability are nominated by the staff and receive a log, which when completed, will enable them to become a Dragon. In order to qualify for this prestigious recognition program, each student must first receive the endorsement of every staff member, know and follow the three R’s, mission statement and five behavioral norms, complete and document two hours of community service and twenty five random acts of kindness.

The following slides will give you a complete overview.

COMMUNITY SERVICESchool and community service is an important part of our Dragon Program. We support several community projects sponsored by the Tacony Business Association and the Tacony Historical Society. These projects include: The History Day Parade/Fair, Senior Citizen Dinner and Business Directory project.

Students may support these programs or become involved in other projects in school, at home or in the community. Each Dragon must complete two (2) hours of service. Have the person you did the service for sign your log, indicating what you did and the time you spent on it. Remember, service is doing something for another person without expecting anything in return.

“DISSTON IS OUR SCHOOL”(N. Kruger)

Far beneath where knowledge callsexists a school that’s good.

And when things don’t go so smoothly, deep down we know it could.Students learning all the time

about our world today.How can we imagine what our future

holds today?

CHORUSDisston is our school

and learning is our tool.Together we can build a heat wave,

and generate its power.If we work hard now,

perhaps our future will be sound.Maybe we can build a better world for us

to live in.(REPEAT CHORUS)

HAMILTON DISSTON SCHOOLA HISTORY

At one time there were two schools with the Disston name. The first Disston School was built in the 1880’s and was named after Henry Disston. It was located on the south side of Longshore Street between Ditman and Glenloch Streets. The Mary Disston School, named for Henry’s wife, was later build across the street. The Henry Disston School was used for the lower grades (K-4) and the Mary Disston School was used for the upper grades (5-8).

The current Hamilton Disston School was built in 1923. It was named for one of the sons of Henry Disston who was the owner of the Keystone Saw and File Works. It combined all the grades from kindergarten through eighth grade. The Henry Disston School was torn down and two-story row houses were built on its site. The Mary Disston School was sold to St. Josaphat’s Ukrainian Catholic School. It still serves today as a parochial school.

The Disston family donated furniture, books and equipment to the school. The stained-glass windows in the auditorium were also donated by members of the Disston Family. The beautiful wall murals were donated by Mrs. Jane Marsden Dixon. In 1970, a new Instructional Materials Center was built to replace the “Lehr Memorial Library” housed in room 204.

The tradition of the Home and School Association in Disston Schools began in the 1880’s with Mr. Birney as President of the Henry Disston School. It continued in the 1920’s with Thomas Oxley as Hamilton Disston’s first Home and School President. The current Home and School Association is continuing this tradition begun in the 1880’s.

During it’s many years, students of Disston School have gone into many fields of business and service in Philadelphia communities and elsewhere. Disston School today serves the educational needs of the Tacony area and has expanded to serve the needs of other Philadelphia communities.

Information taken from Tacony Then and Now, a booklet produced by the 1987 eighth grade class under the guidance of Mr. Alphonse Zarzecki.
