We’re excited to continue the Kiker Elementary School Science Fair tradition with another year of curiosity, creativity, and discovery! The 2027 Kiker Elementary School Science Fair & STEM Night is open to all Kiker students in Pre-K through 5th grade and will take place on January 13, 2027, at 5:30 PM in the Kiker Elementary School Cafeteria.

Every Kiker student is invited to participate, giving our young scientists the opportunity to ask questions, explore ideas, make discoveries, and proudly share what they’ve learned with their families and the Kiker community.

For students in 3rd–5th grade, the Kiker Science Fair also provides an opportunity to advance to the Greater Austin Regional Science and Engineering Fair (GARSEF) and showcase their work alongside young scientists from across the Austin area.

Whether your student is discovering the Science Fair for the first time or returning for another year, our goal is to spark curiosity, encourage exploration, build confidence, and celebrate the scientist in every Kiker student!
