Focused on students, Mayor David Bristol and Prosper ISD school board vice president Dena Dixon showcase their duties to the government classes. The students learned about the obstacles faced in the town council, and got more insight to Bristol's job. "The town facilities, the municipal services that we have, this is not normal," Bristol said. "People come to this area. In the last five years, a lot of you guys moved here for the school district, specifically.  Your parents brought you here so you can go to the ISD. That is not the same. There are not people clamoring to go to some of this districts to the south of us. So, we have something unique and special here, and I want to continue that."
