Famed skateboarder Terry Kennedy -- who's behind bars, serving a 5-year prison sentence for an assault that resulted in the death of fellow skater Josiah Kassahun -- is scheduled to be released at the end of the month, TMZ Sports has learned.

The Illinois Department of Corrections tells us that Kennedy, who is 40 years old, "was eligible for and received sentence credit" ... meaning his release date was pushed up, and he'll walk out of the slammer on December 31, 2025, just in time for New Year's Eve.
