Cyprus High belongs to the Granite School District.
Cyprus High School dates back to April 1918. The auditorium was added in 1973 and the science building in 1978. Due to the age of the main building, it was completely rebuilt in 1983. In 2025, a new building was constructed on a new campus to replace the aging building.
Enrollment
Cyprus High School serves approximately 2,600 students[3] in grades, 9–12. The old building of Cyprus wasn't big enough to hold 4 grades, so as part of it, Brockbank Jr. High became a part of Cyprus. 7th and 8th graders that would've gone to Brockbank went to Matheson Junior High School. However, with the establishment of the new high school Brockbank Jr. High has been re-established.
As of the 2020-2021 school year, 49.2% of the student body are White, 41.8% are Hispanic, 2.2% are African American, 3.0% are Pacific Islander, 1.7% are Asian, and 1.3% are Native American.
