Together We Prosper

One of the Prosper ISD guiding principles is:

• Together We Cultivate: Creating meaningful connections across our growing community

You'll see that modeled in our district by preserving traditions while maintaining a tight-knit, small-school feel as enrollment grows.

It also means immersing new employees into the culture seamlessly, preparing them to align naturally with district expectations.

And it means thoughtfully engaging families to strengthen community bonds and nurture a sense of unity.

As your family starts this school year, we encourage you to cultivate meaningful connections across our growing community to build strong relationships, foster a deep sense of belonging, and support a thriving environment for every student.

We are thrilled to welcome all our families back to Children’s Health Stadium for another incredible season under the Friday (and Thursday) night lights! As you gear up for game day, please keep these essential updates in mind for a smooth, safe, and fun experience for everyone:

• Cashless Venue: All concessions and ticketing are now entirely cashless, so please plan to use a credit or debit card.

• Clear Bag Policy: To ensure guest safety, only clear bags that meet stadium guidelines will be permitted inside the gates.

• Beat the Heat: To help everyone stay safe and hydrated, we have increased the number of water stations along the concourse where you may purchase bottled water.

Stay cool, cheer loud, and let's make it a fantastic season!

We’re looking for caring, committed adults to serve as mentors to Prosper ISD students. You don’t need to be a counselor or expert—just someone willing to listen, encourage, and show up consistently. Mentors meet with students on campus during the school day in a structured, supportive environment.

Read more about this mentorship program here.

The 2026–2027 Free and Reduced-Price Lunch Applications are now open! Starting August 5, Prosper ISD will begin sending letters home to eligible households about benefits and any next steps needed to apply. If your household doesn't automatically qualify (for example, through SNAP, TANF, or other program participation), you can apply online anytime during the school year at prosper-isd.net/page/free-and-reduced-lunch. You'll need household member names, income information, and the last four digits of a Social Security number (or you can indicate you don't have one). Questions about eligibility? Reach out to child-nutrition@prosper-isd.net. We're here to make sure every Prosper ISD student has access to the meals they need to thrive.

Please help the Texas School Safety Center learn more about parent perspectives on firearms storage. All responses are greatly appreciated!
