Students at one DeKalb school will get a kick out of Friday’s special guest.
Students at International Community School will hear Lagos Kunga, a member of Atlanta United’s Homegrown team. Homegrown players are those who are signed to professional contracts by a team after they have spent at least a year in that team’s youth development program.
He’ll speak at 10 a.m., according to a news release. The school is located at 2418 Wood Trail Lane in Decatur.
