Cypress Bay High School
National Honor Society
OUR TEAM
The group of individuals dedicated to the improvement of our National Honor Society Chapter and to the administration of service throughout our city.
Dr. Kristina Taylor, Advisor
I am a very proud graduate of Cypress Bay High School's class of 2005. After graduating from CBHS I decided to attend the University of Florida (GO GATORS!) as a first generation college student, where I earned my Bachelors and Masters degrees in Education. After finishing my first two degrees in 2009, I returned to Broward County Public Schools where I immediately began teaching. In 2011 I was selected as a recipient of the TEACH Grant by the US Department of Education. This grant allowed me to earn my Doctorate degree free of charge! After working in college administration for a few years, I realized that I belonged with the kids and returned "home" to CBHS.
I am here to support our kids in every way possible to best prepare them for life after The Bay.
On a personal note, I have two amazing kids- Khloe (10) and Ashe (4) who are excited to also be a part of our NHS family.
