Caption Lilly Phagan and her parents pose with Crisp County High School teacher Jessica Young and her students who created a new prosthetic hand for Lilly.
Crisp County High School anatomy teacher Jessica Young and three of her students leant a helping hand to a child in need this holiday season by 3D printing a prototype prosthetic.
Young learned about a program E-Nable the Future three years ago during a technology seminar at our local Chattahoochee-Flint RESA. A video showed students printing prosthetic hands for kids and adults all over the world. She set a goal that day to get her students involved in this program. After learning that Crisp County High School had a 3D printer, Young was ecstatic about the possibilities. She dove head first into learning how to 3D print and incorporating 3D printing into her classroom.
