Destination Imagination

Destination ImagiNation® Inc. is an international program dedicated to the enhancement of the learning skills, creative problem solving skills, team skills, sportsmanship and knowledge of all students. Research skills and time management skills will also be strengthened by participation in the program. Destination ImagiNation® will provide support for the teams, their managers, and those who coordinate the training for team managers, officials, and volunteers who coordinate the competition. The goals of the Destination ImagiNation® are to:

• Foster creative and critical thinking
• Learn and apply creative problem solving tools
• Develop teamwork, collaboration, and leadership skills
• Nurture research and inquiry skills
• Enhance and apply communication and presentation skills
• Promote the recognition, use, and development of many and varied strength and talents
• Encourage competence in, enthusiasm for, and commitment to real-life problem solving

In support of these goals, Katy Independent School District (KISD) sponsors Destination ImagiNation® (DI) teams at participating campuses. DI will be conducted as an extra-curricular activity within KISD.

Campus administrators will decide if the campus will participate in the DI program, based on student interest and available parent volunteer team managers.
