Last week, ahead of National Teacher Appreciation Week, twelve winning teachers had the celebration of a lifetime at Walt Disney World Resort in Lake Buena Vista, Florida, as part of the Disney Imagination Campus 2025 Teachers Celebration.
Out of tens of thousands of entries, these 12 teachers were chosen to enjoy a 4-day, 3-night stay at the resort. They represent the inspirational work that educators do nationwide to support and inspire our students. Their experience created magical memories that the elementary, middle and high school teachers will remember for a lifetime.
The 2025 Teachers Celebration was filled with magic, starting with a breakfast at Magic Kingdom Park and an inside look at Disney Imagination Campus Workshops. The teachers put on their Imagineering caps in our Disney Theme Park Design Workshop – gaining a holistic understanding of how form and function come together to make the seemingly impossible…possible! They worked together as they observed best practices employed throughout Magic Kingdom Park and created hypothetical solutions necessary to design a theme park.
The teachers were both surprised and honored to serve as the Grand Marshals of the day’s Disney Festival of Fantasy Parade. Before the parade began, they were celebrated throughout Magic Kingdom Park as they waved from a special royal vehicle. The surprises didn’t end there – later, the group enjoyed a private dinner and special fireworks viewing at EPCOT with their friends and families. A few beloved Disney pals even popped in to say hi ya!
We are thrilled and honored to celebrate these teachers and hope they had a magical time with Disney Imagination Campus. This celebration is just the beginning – we hope that it’s a launchpad for new ideas, and bold, imaginative thinking to enrich their classrooms.
