In an effort to spur on registration for a pair of new Killeen elementary schools not yet open, the district deployed its mobile STEM lab with its on-board technology and connectivity.
The eye-catching vehicle parked on an undeveloped street recently within easy view of the new Pat Carney Elementary School, still under construction at Estancia West on the west side of Clear Creek Road.
Numerous family members parked on the street and a few walked from nearby houses to visit the mobile lab and to register children for school.
The mobile STEM lab also pulled up to the new Killeen Elementary School on Rancier Avenue to provide registration for families in that attendance zone.

KILLEEN, Texas - A Killeen ISD elementary school was evacuated Thursday morning after a student set a fire in a campus bathroom.
Killeen ISD says that around 9:40 a.m., smoke alarms went off on the second floor of Maude Moore Wood Elementary School, leading to an immediate evacuation of the campus. Fire crews arrived on the scene and located a small fire in the upstairs bathroom and put it out.
An investigation by the KISD police and the fire department determined that the fire was intentionally set. Killeen ISD says that a 10-year-old student later confessed to bringing matches to school and setting the toilet paper dispenser on fire.
