FAQs

When can my school schedule a trailer?

Visit the Calendar page for time slots and registration form.

Do the trailers have different equipment?

All trailers have the same equipment in them.

How much space is needed for setup?

Each of the labs comes with a 6x2 foot table. These can be side-by-side or separated depending on the room and available space. Schools have had luck putting them in a Library or similar location that has supervision and can be secured after hours.

School WiFi Access

Each lab has a computer (or iPad) that will need access to the Internet. If your network is managed by ESU 10 NIS, we will add an SSID to your school network to make the labs work properly.

What happens when the trailer gets to the school?

Upon arrival, the coordinator will check in with the school contact (please designate name and number – phone and/or text) to survey lab location(s), review security of labs, electrical options, the best way to get labs into the school, setup, and options to park the trailer. It is helpful to have students and/or staff available to help move and setup the labs. We will have at least one moving cart.

To move from the trailer (in order): tables, then labs. 

Room Setup (in order): tables, labs to tables, electrical reel to each table, computers (plugged in, opened, logged into WiFi/Internet.)
