Prosper ISD Boundary Changes for 2027-28: What Families Need to Know
Proposed Prosper ISD school zones would move six neighborhoods to Watkins Middle School in fall 2027. See the affected communities, Mosaic's high school change and student options ahead of the November 16 vote.
As of November 9, 2026, these boundary changes are proposed, not approved. The Prosper ISD board is scheduled to vote on Monday, November 16, 2026. Confirm the final decision and your home's school assignments directly with the district before making a housing or enrollment decision.
As a Prosper ISD mom of three, I know how much a school zone shapes where a family wants to live. When the district proposes moving neighborhoods to new schools, I pay close attention — and I want you to have the details, too.
Prosper ISD has proposed new middle and high school attendance boundaries for the 2027-28 school year to make room for Watkins Middle School, which is set to open in fall 2027. Here's what's on the table and what it could mean for your family.
Why the boundaries are changing
Dr. Drew and Kristen Watkins Middle School is a public middle school serving grades 6–8 in Prosper ISD, located at 1550 N Legacy Dr, Prosper, TX 75078. The school was originally planned to open in 2026-27. The district pushed the opening back a year because student growth slowed. Officials say Prosper ISD is still growing, just at a steadier pace.
Much of that future growth is in the northwest part of the district. According to the reporting cited below, Legacy Branch, Creekside, Legacy Gardens, Edgewood Creek, Sutton Fields and Green Meadows each have more than 200 developed-but-vacant or yet-to-be-built lots. Today, those neighborhoods feed Moseley Middle School. The proposal would distribute future growth between Moseley and Watkins.
That growth list is not the same as the list of neighborhoods proposed to change schools. The proposed moves described in the report are below.
Which neighborhoods would move to Watkins Middle School?

Six neighborhoods would move to Watkins under the proposal:
| Neighborhood | Current middle school | Proposed middle school for 2027-28 |
|---|---|---|
| Lakes of Prosper | Reynolds Middle School | Watkins Middle School |
| Villages at Prosper Trail | Reynolds Middle School | Watkins Middle School |
| Creeks of Legacy | Moseley Middle School | Watkins Middle School |
| Legacy Gardens | Moseley Middle School | Watkins Middle School |
| Star Trail | Moseley Middle School | Watkins Middle School |
| Mosaic | Moseley Middle School | Watkins Middle School |
If you are comparing homes in Creeks of Legacy, Legacy Gardens or Star Trail, keep the proposed future assignment separate from the school's current-year zoning. Neighborhood names are a starting point; always verify the exact property address with Prosper ISD.
Would the high school assignment change, too?
Under the proposal, students zoned to Watkins Middle School would feed into Prosper High School.
For Mosaic, that would mean a change from Richland High School to Prosper High School. The district's recommendations also include an option for some current Richland students to stay, as described below.
What it means for current students
The district's recommendations include options for students already attending the affected schools. These are proposed options, not final enrollment guarantees:
- Rising eighth graders at Reynolds or Moseley: Students who would be rezoned to Watkins could finish at their current middle school if their families provide transportation.
- Rising tenth through twelfth graders from Mosaic at Richland High School: These students could remain at Richland if their families provide transportation.
- High school feeder assignment: Students zoned for Watkins would still feed into Prosper High School, even if they do not attend Watkins.
Before relying on an option to stay at a current campus, confirm eligibility, the request process and transportation requirements with Prosper ISD after the board's decision.
If you're buying a home in Prosper
Look at the school a home would be zoned to in 2027-28, not just its assignment today. If you're shopping in Lakes of Prosper, Villages at Prosper Trail, Creeks of Legacy, Legacy Gardens, Star Trail or Mosaic, factor the proposal into your planning and confirm the final boundaries after the November 16 vote.
My advice is to work through three questions before choosing a home:
- What are the current school assignments for this exact address?
- What would change under the proposed 2027-28 boundaries?
- If your child is already enrolled, would an option to remain at the current campus apply — and can your family provide transportation?
My Prosper ISD schools guide and moving-to-Prosper guide can help you compare the broader picture, but the district is the authority on school assignments.
If you're selling a home in Prosper
Buyers with school-age children may ask about the proposal. Know your home's current and proposed zoning, and be ready to explain that the boundary decision and student options are not final as of this article's date.
Clear, accurate answers help buyers understand their choices. Avoid presenting a proposed assignment as approved or promising that a student will qualify to stay at a particular school. Direct buyers to Prosper ISD for confirmation.
How families can have their say
The district will consider community feedback before the scheduled vote. Watch Prosper ISD's website and board meeting announcements for information about sharing input before November 16, 2026.
For school-zone verification, start with the district's attendance-boundary information and confirm which school year each map covers. A 2026-27 map is not confirmation of a proposed 2027-28 assignment.
