Cypress Springs High School

Cypress Springs High School, CSHS, or more commonly as Cy-Springs is located at 7909 Fry Road, in Cypress, an unincorporated community in Harris County, Texas, with a ZIP code of 77433.

Cypress Springs High School, the home of Student Panthers, was established in 1997, making it the sixth high school within Cypress Fairbanks Independent School District to open its doors to students in the Cypress and Katy areas. Since 2015, the school's principal has been Dr. Cheryl T. Henry. From 2012-2015, the school's principal was Mr. Travis Fanning and from 2008-2012, the school's principal was Mrs. Barbara Weiman, one of the former Associate Principal before her promotion to being Principal. Prior to Mrs. Weiman becoming principal, Mrs. Sarah Harty was principal, until she was chosen to be the first principal of nearby Cypress Lakes High School which opened in 2008. The very first principal to serve was Mr. Alan Meek, who helped establish the school in 1997.

The school's floor plan, same as the floor plans of: Cypress Lakes High School, Cypress Ranch High School, Cypress Ridge High School, and Cypress Woods High School, could be compared to that of a small shopping mall with two floors, and hallways with classrooms on either side branching off of the central hallway, with the cafeteria (Commons) in the middle.

In the 2005-2006 school year, attendance at this high school reached more than 4,000 students due to the building boom taking place in the local area, making for a crowded school and crowded hallways.

On Wednesday, October 28, 2015 a series of fights occurred on campus.[2]
