Destination Imagination is here!!  We are partnering with our regional  team to bring Destination Imagination to AAE! For children who are STEAM-enthusiasts, budding artists, storytellers, passionate community activists, or kids that just love to learn and explore new ideas, DI can nurture that curiosity and help use it to build lifelong skills for success. 3rd-5th grade students form teams and participate in STEAM challenges and can go on to enter in the Regional Tournament in February!
