To coincide with the 50th Anniversary celebration of Walt Disney World Resort, Disney Imagination Campus just revealed the names of 50 inspiring teachers. From across the country who will take part in a magical celebration at Walt Disney World Resort next month.

Teachers from around the nation submitted their inspiring stories of how they are using imagination-powered learning. To positively impact the lives of their students and communities. And we are eager to celebrate their amazing creativity and dedication.
