Summer STEM with Lagcoe at the Boys & Girls Club of Acadiana

Jul 31, 2025 / News

This summer, Lagcoe hosted a series of interactive STEM sessions at the Boys & Girls Club of Acadiana - Jackie Club. Over several weeks, we engaged children of all age groups with hands-on activities designed to spark curiosity and build understanding around science, technology, engineering, and math—especially as they relate to the world of energy.

From building structures with STEM kits to exploring how homes use and conserve energy through our “Energy House” activity, each session offered something new and exciting. Our goal was to connect real-world concepts to fun, accessible experiments that leave a lasting impression.

We wrapped up the summer series with a high-energy visit from the Louisiana Department of Energy and Natural Resources, who brought their interactive Watt’s Bicycle to the Jackie Club. Children lined up for a chance to power  experience firsthand how energy is generated and used.

“At Lagcoe, we believe energy education starts early and should be engaging, empowering, and fun,” said Fumy Rita, Executive Director of Lagcoe. “We’re proud to bring programs like this to our community and help kids see that they have a place in the future of energy.”

Lagcoe remains committed to expanding access to STEM and energy education across Acadiana. Through partnerships with schools, clubs, and community organizations, we’ll continue to introduce students to exciting concepts, real careers, and the science that powers our world.
