Probably not enough of us ever attend a DISD athletic event, and one reason has always been that if your son or daughter isn’t on a team or you aren’t on a PTA mailing list, you’re probably not going to find out which team is playing when and where in time to make a decision to attend anyway.

DISD is doing something to rectify that: check out www.dallasisd.org/athletics. As it is filled in by coaches in the coming weeks, the entire roster of UIL-sanctioned school events (middle and high schools) will be there, along with schedules, game cancellations, field locations and results.
