In the past, Cypress Lake High School and Cypress Lake Center for the Arts were separate institutions and therefore had separate sets of administration and staff. Students attending Cypress Lake Center for the Arts would take their academic classes at Cypress Lake High School. Today, they are one coherent school, with the same staff and administration.
