Can you imagine learning about marine life in The Living Seas at Epcot? In this program, students are in groups of 10 or more, and in grades 3-7. They have the opportunity to explore the difficulties facing marine life. They will also work on team building skills in order to develop a plan to help protect the oceans.

There are so many unique opportunities at Walt Disney World! And when you live in Central Florida, not only is Walt Disney World your playground, it can also be your classroom. Recently, Orlando Magic star Aaron Gordon took a group of underserved youth to participate in a Disney Youth Education Program!
LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. (July 12, 2019) – Orlando Magic star Aaron Gordon and 30 local under-served youngsters from his CodeOrlando summer academy took part in an innovative and magical Disney Youth Education Series program at Walt Disney World Resort on Friday. The program, entitled “Energy and Waves Physics Lab,’’ teaches kids the “science behind the magic’’ of Walt Disney World Resort.
The youngsters and Gordon, who was accompanied by his mother Shelly Davis-Gordon, who is a former engineer, learned about energy, sound and light through various technology used in Fantasyland, the Haunted Mansion and Mickey’s PhilharMagic.
