How do I begin?

Getting Started

To enroll in a Prosper ISD school, a student must live within the boundaries of Prosper ISD and meet state age and health requirements. A child must be five years of age on or before September 1 to enter kindergarten and six years old on or before September 1 to enter first grade. Visit Prosper ISD Attendance Zone Information online (prosper-isd.net/attendancezone) to determine which campus your child would attend. Parents/Guardians that are new to Prosper ISD will need to create an enrollment account (prosper-isd.net/SkywardEnroll). Additional resources (new student enrollment parent tutorial and Skyward video) to help with this process can be found at prosper-isd.net/ studentenrollment.

To expedite your student’s enrollment, please upload all of the required documents listed below within the New Student Online Enrollment application. After submitting the online application, the campus registrar will contact you to finalize your student’s enrollment in Prosper ISD. Please note that completing the online application does not complete the enrollment process.

Athletics

Prosper ISD is proud of the multiple athletic opportunities provided to our students at the middle school and high school levels. In addition, the district also offers a designated staff member who serves as a recruiter assisting students wishing to pursue athletics in college to find a fit at the collegiate level.

Immunizations

The state of Texas has strict requirements for Texas school districts on the acceptable evidence necessary for student vaccinations prior to entry and admission to school. The law requires that a student has evidence of proper vaccinations or a current state approved and notarized exemption certificate on file before the student may begin school.

Prosper Education Foundation

The Prosper Education Foundation seeks to profoundly impact the success of each PISD student by supporting and encouraging the educational excellence, innovation and achievement in Prosper ISD. By raising funds and putting them to work within Prosper ISD, PEF builds futures for students through college scholarships, and equips hardworking educators through grants, recognition and awards, and support for district-wide academic programs and professional development initiatives that are outside the budget of PISD. For more information go to prospereducationfoundation.org.

Volunteering

Prosper ISD is thankful for our many volunteers. To ensure the safety and security of our students and staff, Prosper ISD requires a background check for each volunteer every school year. This background check will suffice for all volunteer activities at all Prosper ISD campuses. If you have children on multiple campuses, you only need to submit one background check. A background check is not required when visiting a campus to eat lunch with your child; however you will need to bring your driver’s license with you.

Kroger Rewards

Kroger’s generosity through Kroger Rewards provides an avenue by which the money PISD parents are already spending, goes to benefit our schools. Shoppers in Texas and Louisiana can designate a PISD PTO on their Kroger Plus Shopper’s Card account and a percentage of their purchases will be sent in a quarterly check to their chosen organization.

This program is free to join and has already generated thousands of dollars for Prosper schools. We look forward to watching it grow! To access your Kroger Plus Shopper’s Card account, go to:

Parent/Teacher Organizations

Campus PTO’s are a great way to get involved at your student’s school. Each school’s PTO website allows parents to join PTO, sign up for volunteer opportunities, purchase spirit wear, make party money donations, and contribute to fundraisers. Be sure to visit the PTO Membership Toolkit for your campus which is linked under the Parents tab on your campus website.
