Congratulations to the Frisco ISD teams who placed at the Global Finals Destination Imagination Tournament in Kansas City, Missouri in late May. Nearly 1,200 Destination Imagination teams from 38 states and 17 countries showcased their creative solutions to a series of practical challenges and Frisco ISD students rose to the challenge.

Destination Imagination is a parent-led educational program in which students teams solve open-ended challenges and present their solutions at tournaments. The challenges require students to apply STEAM skills, in addition to their talents in improvisation, theatre arts, writing, project management, communication, innovation, teamwork, community service and social entrepreneurship.
