WHEREAS, The Cypress-Fairbanks Independent School District
celebrated the opening of its new Cypress Park High School on August
22, 2016; and
WHEREAS, This handsome 592,000-square-foot facility is the
11th high school in the district, and it includes a three-story
academic wing, a community building for athletics and fine arts,
and a dining hall; the school's state-of-the-art design
incorporates natural light, collaborative classrooms, and the
latest in digital technology, including Wi-Fi throughout the
building; and
WHEREAS, For its first year, the campus is welcoming 650
freshmen, with a new class of students to be added each subsequent
year until the school is fully occupied with 3,300 students; the
incoming students themselves helped pick the school's mascot, the
tiger, and its colors, gold and black; and
WHEREAS, Cypress Park High is the first building in a
179-acre complex that will eventually include an elementary school
and a middle school, serving as the educational home for area
students from kindergarten through grade 12; and
WHEREAS, With the dedicated efforts of Principal Chris Hecker
and his staff, as well as the steadfast support of parents and other
community members, Cypress Park High will provide its students with
a strong foundation for their future success, and it is indeed a
welcome addition to Cypress-Fairbanks ISD; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 85th Texas
Legislature hereby commemorate the opening of Cypress Park High
School and extend to the school's students, teachers, and staff
sincere best wishes for success; and, be it further
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
prepared for the school as an expression of high regard by the Texas
House of Representatives.
