Cypress Creek High School is a public secondary school located in unincorporated Harris County, Texas, United States.

Cypress Creek, which serves grades 9 through 12, is a part of the Cypress-Fairbanks Independent School District. Cypress Creek has a Houston address.

Cypress Creek High School opened its doors to students for the first time in late 1970s. The first graduating class was in 1980. Throughout the years, several extensions were made onto the building. In 2004, a major renovation project was passed by Propostion 1 from the 2004 Bond Referendum. All of the interior and much of the exterior is to be remodeled, and new classrooms are to be added.

Students often refer to Cypress Creek High School "Cy-Creek" or just "Creek".

At the current time, about 20-30 8th grade students from Bleyl, Hamilton and Campbell middle schools take classes in Latin, French, Spanish, German, English, and Geometry.

Cypress Creek also features a CISCO Networking Academy class, which prepares students to take the CCNA. Students commute from other Cypress-Fairbanks high schools to take the course.
