Noting that everything ultimately depends on how the different municipalities zone their respective areas of our ISD, PISD is expecting approximately 50,000-60,000 students, which would be housed in about 30-40 elementary schools, 8-10 middle schools, and 6-8 high schools (maintaining the 5A model).  Note that there will be a number of support and district-level facilities as well.

We have purchased all the sites on the current growth map or have an agreement with the neighborhood to legally obtain it when the time comes to build. We continue to evaluate sites and the possibility of purchasing more.

We are thankful to have many CTE and vocational programs at Prosper ISD.  We currently offer Ag Mechanics class which includes welding and some woodwork. High School #3 will offer a Construction Management course. We do not currently have a HVAC program. Since Hockey is not a UIL sport and, thus, the district doesn’t have a team, there is no current plan to provide a hockey rink. Other facilities that we have include the stadium, natatorium, tennis courts, baseball and softball fields, gymnasium/arenas, and weight rooms. We do have plans for a Fine Arts facility in the future and a second natatorium. Additions to Frontier Park would be done through the city and not the school district.

“Core Capacity” refers to common spaces like gyms, cafeterias, restrooms, office space, hallways, libraries, etc.  It is also important to note that portable buildings increase the classroom capacity.

*Classroom Capacity is what is preferred based on the scheduled use of those rooms.  When a building exceeds that “preferred” capacity then we have to utilize all specialty areas for regular classrooms and consider portable buildings.

August 2023 - Elementary #16 (Dan Christie Elementary) and Elementary #17 (Lilyana Elementary) will open in the Sutton Fields and Liliyana neighborhoods, respectively, along with the Brenda Calhoun Early Childhood School and Walnut Grove High School.

August 2024 - New campuses will be Elementary #18 and Daniel L. Jones Middle School near Rock Hill.

The simple answer is the availability to use bonded money which is what school districts use to build new schools and facilities. After a bond is passed, we don’t get immediate access to that money. We are able to pull incremental amounts (usually each year) of the total to be used. An important point to consider is that the bond money is for the building of the facility and not able to be used for the staffing of the facility. To be fiscally responsible, the district must also ensure that we have the budget capacity to staff the campus once it opens.
