Show MAGNA TIMES, Magna, Utah n Work! elhieirg' Bit's 5k Its big business today! Big cars, big companies, big airplanes and big schools combine to become big cities. While some people may not classify Magna as a big city, it is larger than it was in 1940 or 1960. Cyprus High is bigger, too. In 1961, the student body numbered about 700. Today (1970-71- ) the student body is 1,450. This increase in size at Cyprus causes problems with parking space, bus routes and, more important, problems in providing a good, solid education for every student in the school. It is much easier to get lost in Cyprus today and even maybe drop out of school than it waa when the school was smaller if school people dont put extra talent and effort into the program. Summertime serves as a mini-schoyear with about 350 students attending class.
