When Nurse Michelle McNeal spotted a need for one of her high-need students, she reached out to Mr. Michael Ruiz for help. He responded by 3D printing feeding tube holders — saving families and the campus more than $100 — and then took it a step further, turning the real-world challenge into a powerful lesson for his engineering students. Their cross-campus collaboration is a perfect example of Prosper ISD staff leading with compassion and creativity, and a reminder of what it truly means to Together We Prosper.
