Coppell ISD 2016 Bond Program Recap

  • An Educationally Driven and Community Effort from Start to Finish

    As the construction and renovation projects from the 2013 bond authorization election neared completion, the Coppell ISD Board of Trustees determined it necessary to evaluate and vision the potential need for a future bond election.  The need for visioning was largely driven by the continued student growth in the northern and southern portions of the school district, including but not limited to, the Cypress Waters development, the Bridges, Parkside East and West developments, Westhaven and Easthaven developments, Belmont Landing, and various smaller single-family developments (all representing over 1,900 new single-family homes, plus over 2,000 new multi-family homes).  Therefore, in the spring of 2015, the Facilities Visioning Committee comprised of parents, community members, students, teachers, and central administration staff was formed and convened.  This was the beginning of a process that would help shape the instruction, technologies, and facilities of Coppell ISD for years to come.
