Hands-on learning for electrical program students
Posted

LAFAYETTE, La. — Love Our Schools, alongside Manuel Builders, held a unique, hands-on learning experience on Tuesday, as students from the W.D. & Mary Baker Career Center Electrical Program toured the 2026 Love Our Schools Giveaway Home.

During the visit, students observed a real-time residential electrical installation and engaged with a licensed electrician to learn more about career opportunities in the skilled trades. Through partnerships like this, local students are given the opportunity to connect classroom learning to real-world applications.
