5th Grade Newsletter
September 18, 2026
Please remember that the chaperone interest form must be filled out in order for you to be on the list to possibly be a chaperone.
We need more people who are able to chaperone on our list!! We will need at least 12 moms and 12 dads to join us as chaperones! Chaperones will be chosen through a lottery as we get closer to the date of camp if we have extra. Please fill out this Chaperone Interest Form by September 23rd if you'd like to be a part of 5th grade camp with your child.
If you are the mom of a boy or the dad of a girl, you can still be a chaperone!!
Parents of same gender child will stay in cabins with their child, chaperone a group of students from the cabin, and spend the day with their child's learning group and the assigned students.
Parents of opposite gender child will stay in cabins of same gender and chaperone a group of students from the cabin. The parent and the students they are chaperoning will be assigned the same learning group as their child during the day and evening activities
The Background check form must also be completed no later that September 23rd. So even if you are not sure if you can be a chaperone yet, please fill it out since it can take a little time to clear. Please note that background checks must be done each year if you are volunteering at school
Only parents who have approved background checks are allowed by Prosper ISD to join as chaperones.
