Get Charged Education Kit

Capital Electric Co-op, in partnership with Touchstone Energy Cooperatives and Discovery Channel School, is pleased to offer the "Get Charged" kit to our local schools for (grades 5-9) classroom use. Discovery Channel’s educational division, Discovery Channel School, has created a unique program focusing on electricity. It is designed to be a valuable resource for teachers.
