🔌⚡ Hands-On STEM Learning with BTES! ⚡🔌 Our 6th and 7th grade STEM students had an electrifying experience in February when a team from BTES visited to bring circuits to life! 💡⚙️ Students sketched circuit diagrams, then got hands-on with screwdrivers and wire strippers to wire a light switch and bulb to a power source—seeing their work light up in real-time! With guidance from BTES professionals, including linemen and engineers, they explored real-world electrical concepts and career pathways in the energy industry. A huge thank you to BTES for sparking curiosity and inspiring future problem-solvers! 🔥⚙️
