We are thrilled to announce expanded college-credit opportunities for our Cypress Creek High School students through the Instructional Performing Arts Center (IPAC) at Pasco-Hernando State College (PHSC). As part of this exciting partnership, seats are being reserved specifically for our Conservatory of the Arts students, providing them with unique access to college-level coursework in areas such as music, dance, theatre, visual arts, and digital media while still enrolled at CCHS.

This opportunity allows students to continue pursuing their artistic passions while earning valuable college credit, gaining real-world experience, and getting a head start on their future educational and career goals. We are proud to create pathways that connect talent, passion, and opportunity for our Coyotes. Families interested in learning more about eligibility requirements and course pathways are encouraged to visit our Dual Enrollment Fine Arts webpage.

Your Passion. Your Potential. Your Path to College. We are excited to see our Conservatory students take advantage of this outstanding partnership with IPAC and PHSC! 💚💛🐾

Pasco County Schools will host two in person expo events to showcase the choices and innovative programs in our county for the 27-28 school year on November 9th at Gulf High School and November 10th at Cypress Creek High School. Registration for breakout sessions is now open to the public. Each expo event will take place from 5-8 p.m. Check out the event via the Pasco Pathways Expo website to see all opportunities available at each event. The School Choice Website has information regarding the 27-28 application window. The Pasco Pathways Catalog is also available to showcase many of the options in our county.

Based on feedback from our families, we have made the decision to cancel our upcoming All Pro Dads meeting that was scheduled for November 18. We recognize that November can be an especially busy time for many families, and we want to be respectful of everyone's schedules and commitments.

We look forward to reconnecting with our All Pro Dads community at our next gathering on January 29. Until then, the All Pro Dads team wishes all of our Coyote families a fantastic HOWL-i-day season, a joyful holiday break, and a Happy New Year!

Thank you for your continued support, and we can't wait to see everyone in January! 🐾💚💛

National Red Ribbon Week is October 23–31, a time for schools and communities to encourage children to make healthy, drug-free choices. In support of that message, the Elks Drug Awareness Program invites Cypress Creek High School students to participate in our annual Video Contest.

This year’s theme is “A Healthy Me Is Drug Free.” Students can use their creativity to show what a healthy, drug-free life means to them. First, second, and third place winners will receive $100, $75, and $50 gift cards, respectively, along with trophies. The first-place video will be forwarded to the District Competition. District winners will be forwarded to the State Level Competition.

Video entries may be sent to Wesley Chapel Elks Lodge #2893 by December 7, 2026. I would also be happy to arrange a time to pick them up at your school. Our Elks office will contact the school to announce the winners.

Our ceramics program is looking for 150 shoe boxes with lids to help keep student artwork safe, organized, and protected throughout the semester. These boxes serve as individual storage containers for works in progress and will also be used to help students safely transport their finished ceramic pieces home at the end of each project.

If you have any clean, gently used shoe boxes with matching lids that you no longer need, please consider donating them to our ceramics classroom. Your donation will help us create a more organized studio environment and ensure that student artwork is properly cared for from start to finish.

All boxes can be delivered to room. 5-123.

Thank you for supporting our young artists!
