If you’re a parent or student in Prosper ISD, knowing the school calendar is very helpful. It tells you when school starts and ends, when the breaks are, and when important events will happen. This guide explains everything you need to know about the Prosper ISD calendar for the 2024-2025 school year.
First and Last Day of School
- First day of school: Tuesday, August 13, 2024
- Last day of school: Friday, May 30, 2025
These are the two most important days to remember. The first day marks the start of the school year, and the last day means summer break is here.
School Holidays and Breaks
Students and teachers get time off for rest during the year. These are the main breaks:
- Labor Day: Monday, September 2, 2024
- Thanksgiving Break: November 25 to November 29, 2024
- Winter Break: December 23, 2024 to January 6, 2025
- Martin Luther King Jr. Day: January 20, 2025
- Spring Break: March 10 to March 14, 2025
- Memorial Day: May 26, 2025
These breaks help everyone relax and enjoy time with family.
Teacher Workdays (No School for Students)
There are some days when students stay home, but teachers go to work for training or meetings. These dates include:
- August 7–9, 2024 – Before school starts
- January 6, 2025 – After winter break
- May 30, 2025 – End of school year
These days are good times to schedule appointments or take short trips since there’s no school for kids.
Parent-Teacher Conferences
These are special days when parents talk to teachers about how their child is doing in school. Schools usually plan these meetings twice a year:
- Fall meetings: Around September or October
- Spring meetings: Around March or April
Each school might choose different dates, so it’s best to check with your child’s teacher or school office.
Early Release and Late Start Days
Some days, school might start later or end earlier than usual:
- Late Start Days: School begins later in the morning.
- Early Release Days: Students go home earlier in the afternoon.
These days help teachers plan and train. Parents will get a schedule ahead of time so they can make arrangements.
Report Cards and Grading Periods
The school year is divided into four parts. These are called grading periods. After each one, students get report cards to show how they’re doing.
The grading periods usually follow this pattern:
- August to October
- October to December
- January to March
- March to May
This helps parents know how their child is doing throughout the year.
State Testing
Students in certain grades will take tests required by the state of Texas. These tests are usually in the spring.
- STAAR tests: April and May
- High school exams: For certain subjects and graduation
Teachers help students get ready, and schools give reminders about test dates.
Big School Events and Activities
Here are some fun and important events that usually happen during the school year:
- Homecoming: A fun fall week with dress-up days, a parade, and a football game
- Open House: Parents visit classrooms and meet teachers
- Prom: A formal dance for high school students
- Field Day: Fun games and activities, usually at the end of the year
- Fine Arts Shows: Music, theater, and art events
These activities make school more enjoyable and give students a chance to shine.
Graduation Dates for Seniors
If you have a student graduating in 2025, here are the expected dates:
- Prosper High School: May 22, 2025
- Rock Hill High School: May 23, 2025
- Walnut Grove High School: Usually around the same time (exact date to be announced)
Graduation is a big moment for seniors and families. Schools will share more details as the date gets closer.
Weather Days and Closures
Sometimes, school closes because of bad weather like snow or storms. Prosper ISD plans a few “make-up days” just in case this happens.
If school is closed, the district will let families know early by text, email, or phone calls.
Tips for Parents
- Write down the important dates or add them to your calendar.
- Try not to plan family trips when school is in session.
- Keep track of report cards and testing days.
- Ask your child’s teacher or school if you have questions.
Being prepared helps your child have a great school year.
