Eight Dallas ISD schools are advancing to the Destination Imagination Global Finals being held May 24–27 in Knoxville, Tenn!
The teams advanced out of the State Destination Imagination Tournament held April 8 in Lubbock.
Destination Imagination is a fun, hands-on system of learning that fosters students’ creativity, courage and curiosity through open-ended academic challenges in the fields of STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics), fine arts and service learning. Participants learn patience, flexibility, persistence, ethics, respect for others and their ideas, and the collaborative problem-solving process. Teams may showcase their solutions at a tournament.
