Disney Offers Education Weekend to 100 Students
Walt Disney World Resort has announced that they are accepting nominations for an enrichment event weekend for 100 of the nation's best high schoolers.
Disney is calling the weekend its first ever Disney's Dreamers Academy.
The weekend is scheduled for Jan. 17-20, 2008. Disney officials are asking educators, parents and community members to nominate high school students they feel deserve a chance to learn in Florida. Officials say the company is searching for teens, grades 9-12, from across the nation to give them the opportunity to go as far as their dreams and their imaginations will take them.
During the Disney's Dreamers Academy program, promoters say the students will be immersed in creative, nonconventional careers at Walt Disney World.
