In December, 5th graders at McEver had an electrifying experience. Ed Gillot, electrical engineer from Baldor Reliance Electric, showed them the fundamentals of a simple motor using wire and a magnet. He also showed them a cut-away of an operating motor that is similar to the ones designed and manufactured at his plant in Flowery Branch. When he was done with his presentation, the students had a hands-on understanding of the role that magnets play in producing electricity. The students were excited when the motors they built actually ran! Mr. Gillot is the husband of 5th grade teacher, Linda Gillot.
