Cypress Springs High School

Where did the time go? The Thanksgiving season is upon us, and we are so thankful for the success of our scholars. Academically, our scholars are performing well and are on pace to meet the goals set by our campus and district! Additionally, our athletes, thespians, artists, musicians, and dancers have all won awards and moved on to compete in finals and post season. Our attendance is up!! Our scholars are stepping up to the challenge and they are getting to class on time DAILY!! Thank you so much for your support of our school. Collectively we will continue to thrive - We are THAT SCHOOL!

As we move toward the end of the semester, let's keep up the positive momentum - remind your scholar of the importance of on-time arrival and attendance AND to remember to complete their assignments. Remind them it's ok to ask questions - we are here to help!

When you get a moment, here is a sample of our morning announcements. Students watch these daily as well as see a presentation during lunch with other updates.

Please be sure to read below for upcoming activities and our Alumni Spotlight!

If you are picking up your scholar after school all pick ups take place from the front circle drive. Please do not use either of the front parking lots to pick up your scholar.

Please be aware that due to staff and student parking, as well as pedestrian traffic, driving for pickups and drop-offs in the parking lot can be very unsafe. Please drive safely!

Our goal at Cypress Springs is to provide a quality education in a safe and secure environment with limited distractions. Please see below for a few of the reminders for our students.

Cell Phones - are NOT allowed in the classroom nor during class time. All students have a CFISD device to access their classroom resources. After a warning, student cellphones will be confiscated a $15 fee will be charged, AND the parent will be required to come to the school to retrieve the cellphone.
