Cypress Ranch High School is a secondary school located in Cypress, which is an unincorporated area in Harris County, Texas, near Houston. It is a part of the Cypress-Fairbanks Independent School District.

History

Trustees approved of the construction contract for Cypress Ranch High School and Warner Elementary, located on the 130 acre multi-campus site at Fry Road and Cypress North Houston, to Pepper-Lawson Construction, L.P. in the amount of $68,673,095.00. Both Cypress Ranch and Cypress Lakes High School were designed by PBK Architects, Inc. with modifications to existing plans used in the construction of Cypress Ridge High School, Cypress Woods High School, and Cypress Springs High School. Finally, Cypress Ranch opened for the 2008-2009 school year.[2]

On March 29th, 2012, Cypress Ranch High School released a lip dub video on YouTube called, “Who Do U Think U R.” for their anti-bullying campaign and for competing in the Great American No Bull Challenge video contest. According to the video’s YouTube page, the entire project was created by Cypress Ranch students.[3] A student at Cypress Ranch named Kaitlyn Knippers, who uploaded the video under the name "Kaitlyn K.", wrote and sang the song herself at just 15 years old. She teamed up with the student council president Triple Oswald to film the "lip-dub" of her tune. They enlisted the help of more than 1,000 students at Cypress Ranch High School and put it all together after-school in less than two hours.[4] Furthermore, the video was parodied in the 2012 South Park episode Butterballs, where the character, Stan Marsh, produces an anti-bullying video that is loosely based off of Cypress Ranch's original anti-bullying video, after finding out that his friend was being bullied by his grandma.[5][6]
