Zoning FAQ
-
Is a learner allowed to attend a PISD school outside his/her attendance zone if there are programs offered at other campuses not offered at my child's campus?
Prosper ISD provides transportation for students wanting to take classes not offered at their campus such as the PHS students being bussed to RHHS for engineering and RHHS students being transported to PHS for auto tech. Most middle school campuses offer comparable programs at each campus.

What are the priorities when going through a rezoning process?
We attempt to evaluate our growth beyond today in an effort to minimize movement from one year to the next. We understand the value of stability, but growth sometimes does not allow everyone to simply stay where they wish. Zoning for the 2023-24 school year is available on the district website.

When will elementary schools need to be rezoned?
The new attendance zones for 2023-2024 are available on the website by choosing the About Us or Parent tabs and selecting "Attendance Zone Information."
The attendance zones for 2024-2025 will be announced in late fall of 2023.

Is there any way to keep elementary zones intact for the middle school zones?
This is what we hope to evolve to once we have enough schools. Unfortunately, due to the current size and geographic location of our schools, it would be extremely difficult to implement that approach with this rezoning. For example, we can’t just say the current Baker, Folsom, Hughes, Spradley and Cockrell zones go to Rogers and Windsong Ranch, Rucker, Boyer and Light Farms go to Reynolds because the imbalance would be too significant (the differential would be 800+ students). Unfortunately, there are no simple or clean answers.
-
When elementary schools get rezoned, will my child be allowed to stay in their current school?
Due to our ongoing growth, we will need to evaluate this during the zoning change when we have more concrete campus enrollment numbers. However, given our growth projections, it is highly unlikely that students will be allowed to remain at their old campus (referred to as “grandfathered”).

Is there a chance that certain parts of our school district might be rezoned to McKinney ISD?
NO! When you hear of discussions about “zoning”, please know that is in reference to zones “within” PISD pertaining to which neighborhoods will attend which PISD schools. Please ignore any talk about your area being removed from PISD.
