2025 Disneyland Trip FAQs
How much did fundraising help with lowering the costs compared to last year?
At our General Board meeting in August, the Boosters approved a $12,000 contribution towards Disneyland in the Budget. After reviewing fundraising to date, the Executive Board is recommending an increase of $8,000 to $20,000! If this is approved at the next General meeting the cost for students can be only $500. With the price increases in transportation and Disneyland tickets, this is a fantastic price.
