DI is a team-based problem-solving competition which teaches and encourages students to be creative, to think outside of the box and to collaborate in a variety of unique challenges. More specifically, “teams learn 21st century skills (creativity, critical thinking, collaboration, communication, citizenship and courage) to build on their unique strengths.” - Destination Imagination website |

Once your child has been placed on a team by a team manager, please finish registration here.
Registration for DI opens Monday, September 16, 2019 at 9:00AM.
Team registration is open until October 31, 2019. Once a team is entered (deadline is late 12/19/19) in the Regional Tournament, no further changes to the team can be made. Returning teams can submit forms as a team through their Team Manager.
If you are not on a team and want to be considered for a DI team, please register above and email our grade level coordinators to be added to our grade level interest list. Each Grade Level Coordinator will work over next several weeks to gather names by grade level and will make every effort to group students by interest while balancing gender mix and personalities with willing and available Team Managers.
2019-2020 team challenge preview is ready, please check here.
Medina PTA Destination Imagination is a program wholly run by parent volunteers. To organize a team, simply reach out to interested friends, fill out the Registration online. The best way to learn more is to ASK OTHER KIDS – already involved in our program. Another way to learn is attend our Learn More about DI Parent and Student meeting AFTER the first Medina PTA General Meeting.
