Soon to Be 6th Grade Jaguar Journal
January 30, 2026
Incoming 6th Grade Announcements
We are excited to begin planning for the 2026-27 school year and to guide you and your student through the course selection process. Please review all the essential details about course selection to ensure a smooth experience. Middle School Course Selection opens on February 2nd in Skyward and closes on February 19th. This is not first come, first served so take your time!
Come to Expo Night 2/3 from 5:00-6:30 @ Jones Middle School
This night is an opportunity to walk the campus, see 6th grade classrooms, ask questions about electives, and see performances from our fine arts students.
Review the Course Guide and Worksheet
The first step is to sit down with your student and review the 2026-2027 Middle School Course Guide and the 6th Grade Course Worksheet. The course guide provides descriptions of all available courses and contains a wealth of information to answer most of your questions.
Course Selection Requirement
We ask that every student completes the course selection process, regardless of plans to stay in the district, transfer to another Prosper ISD middle school, or move out of the district. If your student is relocating within Prosper ISD, their course selections will transfer to their new school. For families moving out of the district or choosing alternate educational options, completing the course selection process still helps us assess staffing needs for our growing district.
Need Help?
If you have questions, please start by consulting the course guide. If you still need assistance after reviewing the guide, come to expo night, watch the video below. We’ve also created a centralized form for all course selection inquiries. This form is accessible to all three counselors and Ms. Travers, our counseling assistant, to ensure your questions are addressed promptly.

Below is a video your child will be going through at their elementary school. It provides helpful information about required classes, elective options, fine arts and PE requirements, as well as detailed instructions for entering courses into Skyward.
