• Copperas Cove ISD moves closer to expanding district boundaries (kxxv.com) — Copperas Cove ISD is on the verge of adding more than 300 acres to its boundaries, potentially shifting families from Lampasas ISD to closer Copperas Cove schools within about three months. Local parents in the affected area could see shorter school commutes and new housing development, while district leaders emphasize upgrading existing campuses rather than building a new school.
