The design and rebuild of Cyprus High School and its sister school Skyline High establishes a new standard of innovative K-12 design for Granite School District. For the design of the 505,000-square-foot Cyprus High, NWL Architects and partner Fanning Howey collaborated with administrators and community members to establish core values and goals for the project while forming crucial guiding principles and imperatives for the schools’ design. These values not only embody the learning ethos of Granite School District but serve as prototypes for future high schools. In Cyprus High’s design, NWL and Fanning Howey translated design principles into purpose-driven sites and spaces that are engaging, budget-minded, and sustainable for both the district and the community. Cyprus and Skyline, respectively, represent the far western and the far eastern edges of the district boundaries, setting the tone for Granite School District with dynamic, progressive educational facilities that lead the pack. Construction of Cyprus High will conclude in summer 2025, in time for the Cyprus Pirates to begin a new school year in the fall.
