It currently enrolls 4,192 students. The groundbreaking for the future site of CBHS occurred in early 2001, and construction was finished by late 2002. The school offers academic pursuits including Advanced Placement (AP) courses, AICE courses, honors courses, and an array of academic and extracurricular student clubs and organizations.

Cypress Bay has received an FCAT school grade of "A" for every year since its founding, with the only exception of 2009 when it received a "B". In 2016, U.S. News Best High Schools Rankings gave Cypress Bay a 1st place rank in Broward County, 21st in Florida and 243rd in the United States.

Cypress Bay opened in 2002 for grades 9-11 with 200 students over its projected capacity. The following 2003-2004 school year it was grades 10-12 that attended the main campus while the 9th grade attended a school annex built at a separate location. This situation continued until 2008 when the 9th grade annex was abolished. A new 36 classroom building was opened in the main campus for the school year 2005−2006 to alleviate overcrowding. The 2006 senior class was the first to have attended the school for all four years and at the same location. This did not occur again until the class of 2012, when the graduation ceremony took place at the freshly completed Marlins Park and Vice President Joe Biden delivered the keynote address. The graduating class of 2008 was about 1200 students.
