Schedule a Visit for Your School

Applications for the 2021/22 school year are closed.

Selection of schools will occur in mid-June.

Learning Undefeated offers week-long mobile laboratory visits for Texas schools in all 20 education regions, serving students in grades K-8. Scheduling for schools begins online on April 12. Priority scheduling will be given to schools in rural communities with 70% or more of the student population eligible for free and reduced meals (FARM). Any remaining weeks will be open to any Texas public school that serves grades K-8.

Learning Undefeated receives many mobile lab requests each year. One school in each education service center region will be selected for a visit based on:

  1. Rural location, as designated by TEA
  2. A large number of student population FARM eligible; 70% or higher is the highest priority
  3. A significant student population identified as English language learners
  4. Schools previously scheduled for visits canceled due to the 2020 pandemic
  5. Date of request
