Together we champion student growth, leadership, and ownership of learning by empowering students.

We will cultivate a vibrant and continuously improving professional learning environment that directly translates into enhanced instructional practices and a stronger, more connected school community.

By the end of the 2025-2026 school year, we will fully implement Professional Learning Teams (PLTs) to ensure all students learn at high levels.

Christie will actively involve families as partners in education, strengthen local ties, and foster a shared sense of Prosper Pride that unites our entire community.

You're Invited! Campus leadership, along with Prosper ISD Parent Ambassadors, will host campus tours for parents, grandparents and community members who would like to connect with our school communities and learn more about the positive things occurring in our Prosper ISD schools.

• Become a Mentor. Change a Life. - Join the Prosper ISD Mentorship Program

Are you looking for a meaningful way to give back to your community? The Prosper ISD Mentorship Program offers a unique opportunity to make a lasting impact in the life of a student—one conversation, one connection at a time.

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.

As a mentor, you’ll help students feel seen, supported, and inspired to grow into the confident, resilient leaders of tomorrow. We provide all the training and tools—you bring your time and heart.

Volunteer mentors will:

✔ Meet with students monthly, during the school day, for 30 minutes

✔ Build positive relationships rooted in trust and respect

✔ Serve as role models and champions for student success

✔ Help students develop confidence, character, and connection

Your presence could be the difference that helps a student thrive.

Sign Up Today — More Information Coming Soon!

To be considered for a mentor role, all applicants must complete and pass a Prosper ISD background check.

Please note: Signing up does not guarantee placement. Mentors will be matched based on student need and compatibility.

Your time and heart can help shape a student’s future—sign up today!
