We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Being enrolled in Osbourn High School has been quite a lot. Although some teachers are kind and the teaching is decent, the lunch room and bathrooms could be a horror. My best experience has been the volleyball in the community in sports. I find it very welcoming and amusing playing with my teammates and friends around me. The worst would be the food and sometimes the lack in cleanliness in the restrooms.

The best part about Osbourn High School is the diversity. You can find every culture here. I also like the recources I have here. We have many programs, for example, the CTE programs and AVID. I would like to see a change in security.

During my freshman and sophomore years, I had a great experience engaging with students and having the freedom to create events. The worst parts of my experience were when the rules were less strict and we as kids had the freedom to do more fun events.

Excellent high school. We are proud that they offer the CTE curriculum which is so beneficial for students who do not wish to pursue a 4 year post secondary education.

I believe that Osbourn high school gets a bad rep from many others looking from the outside. As a former student now studying education to return to a school like Osbourn I think that it's important to understand that when it comes to a school, you get what you give. I believe that the diverse popul...
