We’ve been busy behind the scenes getting ready for an exciting summer of welcoming our new educators!

Last Wednesday our team spent the day packing 180 bags with supplies for our incoming teachers, who will receive everything at the New Educator Conference in July. We’re excited to help set the stage for a strong and supportive start to their journey with us. A huge thank you to our amazing partner Addition Financial Credit Union for helping make these teacher bags possible.

And the excitement didn’t stop there… our Tools Mobile Store van was delivered on the very same day!

Stay tuned for a ribbon cutting reveal as we celebrate this new resource coming to our team!

Ahead of Cool KIDS’ SUMMER, Walt Disney World visited Sterling Park Elementary School to celebrate students and educators and share a preview of summer excitement coming to Central Florida.

During the visit, kindergarten and pre-K students enjoyed playful, hands-on activities inspired by GoofyCore at EPCOT, bringing a fun and engaging experience directly into their school. The activities were designed to spark creativity and joy as students wrapped up the school year.

Teachers and staff were also recognized for their dedication and hard work throughout the year. In appreciation of their commitment to students, educators were surprised with tickets to visit Walt Disney World with their families.

The visit is part of Disney’s broader support for education across Central Florida, which includes a $1.3 million contribution to education programs throughout the region this year. Thank you Walt Disney!
