GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. 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.

The worst part was the classes they offer I wish they had more to offer other than gen-ed classes . I also want to talk about the student atmosphere isn't the best and the amount of people who try their best at this school is very low. Which is something I don't like to surround my self with but I can't do much other then not be like those people because I want a future. I want to be the few people at my school to succeed in life that's my goal, to make myself proud.

Osbourn High School, in my opinion, is a decent enough school. I have a group of friends who I acquaint myself with, the teachers are good in what they do, I honestly can't complain.

Osbourn's athletics are decently coached and the higher academic opportunities are good. Something to improve upon is management, support, and overall commitment to the students' success.

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...
