Members of the AEP Texas MRO team visited John F. Kennedy Elementary School in West OSO ISD on March 5 to speak with students about careers in the electric utility industry. During the visit, employees demonstrated how AEP Texas works to safely and reliably deliver power to communities across South Texas. Students had the opportunity to explore metering equipment used to measure electricity usage, try on personal protective equipment and ask questions about tools and responsibilities involved in utility work.
The hands-on demonstrations gave students a closer look at how electricity reaches their homes and highlighted the many career paths available in the energy industry.
