DISD administrator Shirley Ison-Newsome approved of a trip to the Alley Cats Bowling Alley in Arlington last August. Wilmer Hutchins Elementary School Principal Torey Page spent almost $1,500 treating his staff to a day of team building, bowling and laser tag. But two months earlier, everyone in the district was notified of a new policy. In part it read, due to budget constraints "the use of external facilities for professional development or other meetings is no longer allowed."
