Help Kinsey Palmer Take Athletes to Italy

I am one of the coaches that have been selected to participate in the Dallas Athletic Club’s FIRST ever volleyball trip for our student-athletes. We are headed to ITALY in March!

I am so excited to be a part of the first group of Dallas ISD coaches to help get a group of our DISD athletes overseas. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity for so many urban district students.
