Copperas Cove ISD holds second of three bond election Walk and Talk events at Cove High School
The Copperas Cove Independent School District held the second of three Walk and Talk events for members of the community to visit the different campuses and speak with district officials and ask questions regarding the upcoming proposed bond election.
The second event was held at Copperas Cove High School, in Gym 2, or the old gym as its also referred to, with TVs set up around the gym and representatives from the district available to discuss each portion of the three propositions that voters will decide on next month during the November 4 election.
The $165.7 million bond is made up of three Propositions: Proposition A, Proposition B, and Proposition C.
Proposition A ($142.3 million) includes renovations and expansions to Fairview-Miss Jewell Elementary School, Copperas Cove Junior High School and Copperas Cove High School. The renovations to Copperas Cove High School would take $107.3 million of that $142.3 million amount, focusing on replacing aging infrastructure, expanding the cafeteria to hold 400 more students (approximately 1,000 students total), and increasing instructional spaces, including labs, classrooms and collaborative areas through the addition of 55 new classrooms and expansion of certain areas of the school, which also includes the career and technical education (CTE) spaces to ensure each program has space to meet industry standards.
