At the present time, more than 800 students are enrolled at Cedar Valley. The Killeen Independent School District serves an urban population including Fort Hood, the largest military installation in the United States. The campus is located in one of the fastest growing neighborhoods near the southeast city limits of Killeen.
Most students come from dual income families.
Due to the military presence in Killeen, transience of both student and teacher populations is high. Major military operations in dangerous areas such as Kuwait and Bosnia periodically affect student population in the district as well as the emotions of students whose parents may spend lengthy periods of time away from home. Each student at Cedar Valley is considered an individual with unique needs and talents. The goal of every staff member is to fulfill those needs and to develop those talents so that each student will reach his or her highest potential. These same funds finance a lab for students with dyslexic tendencies.
