[edit] History

The Cypress and Fairbanks (an area now in northwest Houston) school districts consolidated in 1939 and yet another new facility was built. Cypress-Fairbanks High School was opened in the spring of 1941. Cy-Fair High School remained the only high school in the Cy-Fair CSD (now ISD) until Jersey Village High School opened in 1972.

The school, which had expanded for several decades beyond the original 1941 design, was modernized after the 1999-2000 school year. Additional classrooms were added during the renovation. The façade at the front main doors remain.
