The Cypress Gems chapter formed in 2014 and is comprised of girls attending Bridgeland, Cy-Fair, Cypress Ranch, Cypress Woods, and Waller High Schools. 

Kristi Kelly, Cypress Gems Chapter President stated, “It has been an honor to watch the senior class fully embrace the core values of NCL. Their dedication to our chapter and community has led them to be confident leaders with servant’s hearts. Our community has benefited greatly from their leadership and volunteer efforts. We wish them much success in the future.”
