Eagle Nation;

It is with great pride that I welcome you to Osbourn High School, Home of the Eagles.  We warmly greet approximately 2,000 students each day as they enter the building eager and ready to learn thanks to the support of their parents, the community, and the faculty and staff at Osbourn High School (OHS). 

I am very excited to start my second year as principal at OHS.  Our staff of educators seeks to work with each and every student as an individual who comes to us with unique dreams and aspirations.  At the same time, we at OHS strive to work together with our community to help all of our young people deepen their core values of citizenship, become life-long learners, develop into problem-solvers, and grow as productive citizens who act with respect and responsibility in everything they do.

 

Our Eagle Nation is built upon the concepts of Rigor, Relevance, and Relationships.  The culture of learning at Osbourn High School stresses the pursuit of 21st century knowledge and skill development in a supportive and cooperative environment.  All members of Eagle Nation -- students, parents, and teachers alike -- are important to the success of our young people.  To that end, the faculty and staff at Osbourn High School are fully committed to educating, advocating for, and encouraging all students during their time here.  We believe that all students are capable of learning and success.  Indeed, doing what’s best for kids is what will always be our first-and-foremost purpose at OHS.

 

Osbourn students are always the fundamental focus of our educational and extracurricular programs, and I want to encourage each student to take advantage of the many opportunities to participate in the life of this vibrant learning community.  Whether interested in athletics, fine arts, service, government and leadership, or additional academics, Osbourn High School provides a wealth of programming to inspire and motivate students to even greater excellence.

 

Parents and guardians are valued partners in our educational system and are encouraged to visit the school, consult with the staff, and participate in school functions.  We routinely hold parent educational nights, college admissions workshops, special events, and informational sessions with our valued support networks within the community.  I would like to personally invite your participation at these events.

 

At Osbourn High School, we are working together to provide the highest quality educational programming possible for the children and young adults in the City of Manassas.  I am proud of what we have accomplished thus far, and I look forward to the continued success of our students at Osbourn High School.

 

Go Eagles!
