Prakash Jadeja (Jad) died Thursday, Jan. 21, unexpectedly at his Dripping Springs home.

Jadeja, 66, was well known in the community as a career technical education (CTE) teacher at Dripping Springs High School (DSHS). He enjoyed mentoring students before they would step out into the real world of engineering and higher education. Jadeja did not steer away from researching. He developed a Fab Lab for DSHS students in 2017 and more recently, he spent summer 2020 printing face shields for the medical community.
