What is Destination Imagination? DI is an extracurricular activity that teaches STEM, the arts, and service learning. Teams of 2-7 students work together to solve an open-ended challenge and then present their solution--in the form of a short, original play--at a tournament. Who can participate? Any Wauwatosa student in grades 1-12. Students are placed on teams according to grade and/or age level. To the extent possible, students are placed on teams with peers from their own school. When and where do teams meet? In Wauwatosa, teams generally meet about once a week, for 1-2 hours at a time, from November or December to March. The meeting schedule is determined by the adult team manager(s). Some teams meet at school, while others meet in a team member's home. When are the tournaments? All Wauwatosa teams will participate in the Southeast Regional Tournament on Saturday, March 13, at Muskego High School. High-ranking teams will advance to the Wisconsin Affiliate (state) Tournament on Saturday, April 10, at Sun Prairie West High School. (Students in grades 1-2 participate at the non-competitive level and do not advance to the Affiliate Tournament.) What does it cost? $130 for students in grades 1-2; $170 for students in grades 3-12. Full and partial scholarships are available. How do I sign my child up? Fill out this form. The requested deadline is Friday, Oct. 9. To learn more about DI, visit wisconsindi.org. |
"There is no other program like DI. It pushes kids to think outside the box and gives them ownership and independence over their own ideas and work. My kids showed more confidence and resilience after being in DI . . . and they had fun, too!" --DI parent
