Adopt A Unit

Fort Cavazos’ Adopt-A-School program spans 9 school districts consisting of 116 schools partnered with over 90 military units. Killeen Independent School District is comprised of 52 of these schools involving 46 units.

The post’s Adopt-A-School Initiative was established by the Commanding General in 2004 to bring awareness and educate our community partners and schools about military culture and what the Great Place has to offer.

Soldiers from the various units participate in a range of activities at their partnered schools that enable them to teach, coach, mentor and inspire students. Highlighted activities include tutoring, Career Day, sporting events, field trips, Make a Difference Day and Thanksgiving meals.
