Among its many duties, the Board of Trustees oversees the management of the public schools in Copperas Cove; levees and collects taxes and issues bonds; adopts the district's annual budget; has the district's fiscal accounts audited each year by a Texas certified or public accountant; adopts rules and bylaws; adopts policy to establish a district and campus level planning and decision-making process; and many other functions.
The Board of Trustees legislates and establishes general policies for the district but does not manage the day-to-day operations of the district.
