It's scheduled to open in August 2020 on the site of the current Cypress Creek Middle High School.

There is a public hearing where parents and community members can let school leaders know what they think on Tuesday, November 5, 2019 at Pasco County School District Headquarters, located at:

Boardroom (Building 3)
7205 Land O' Lakes Boulevard
Land O' Lakes, FL 34638

District staff held a public workshop October 7, from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m., at Wiregrass Ranch High School, where the proposed boundary maps will be displayed and staff will be available to answer questions. Another public hearing is scheduled for November 5 during the 6 p.m. school board meeting at the district office complex.

Although the primary proposed rezoning involves moving some addresses from within the John Long Middle boundary to the Cypress Creek Middle boundary and from within the Wiregrass Ranch High boundary to the Cypress Creek High boundary, the following schools’ current boundaries also are impacted in this proposal:

  • Pasco High
  • Pasco Middle
  • Quail Hollow Elementary
  • San Antonio Elementary
  • Wesley Chapel High
  • Zephyrhills High

The additional proposed boundary adjustments are designed to align school feeder patterns and keep students together as they progress through the school system, according to Pasco County Schools.
