For students in the Miss Jewell wing at Fairview/Jewell Elementary, the trip to the cafeteria is as long as a quarter-mile and requires walking through the heat, cold, ice, and rain, taking classes through hallways, disrupting classes in other hallways. Bond 2025 would build a new, larger, centralized cafeteria on the campus, minimizing class disruption and protecting students and staff during travel to and from the cafeteria.

The 2025 Copperas Cove ISD Bond Proposal is a community-driven plan developed through the work of a Long Range Facilities Planning Committee made up of parents, staff, and community members. The committee prioritized both project needs and cost scenarios before making recommendations to district leaders.

The Board of Trustees charged the committee with reviewing the current condition of facilities, assessing student and staff needs, prioritizing needs, evaluating cost and tax impact options, and making a recommendation that reflected community priorities.
