Principal's Message

Eric Cypher
Los Osos High School Grizzlies, Students, Parents, and Families, 

This school year is off to an incredible start, thanks to the wonderful work of our staff, student leaders, and parent volunteers! The 2024-25 school year is shaping up to be the best year yet, and we remain committed to preparing our students for their road ahead! 

At Los Osos, we provide numerous academic supports to ensure our students are equipped with the tools they need to succeed. These supports work in tandem with our schoolwide vision: “All students at Los Osos will graduate ready for college and career.” Improving our college readiness metric by increasing our A-G completion and decreasing our freshman failures remains at the forefront of student achievement. Enhancing classroom instruction and offering a variety of academic support programs for students will be paramount in accomplishing this vision. Additionally, we continue to offer student support services to ensure that our students have the resources they need for mental health wellness through our Peer Counseling and Reach Out Program, promoting their academic success. These ongoing supports continually prepare our students with the resources to meet their graduation and A-G college requirements. 

Extracurricular activities are a vital part of the Los Osos experience, providing students with opportunities to explore their interests, develop new skills, and build lasting friendships. Our school boasts a wide range VAPA programs, clubs, sports teams, and organizations that cater to diverse interests. From the Surfrider Club, which focuses on environmental conservation, to our award-winning robotics team, to nationally recognized FBLA and speech and debates programs, there is something for everyone. Participation in these activities not only enriches students’ high school experience but also helps them develop leadership skills and a sense of community. 

As we settle into the school year, I want to remind our Grizzlies that Hard Work Pays Off! We have an entire staff dedicated to guiding you toward your dreams, and this staff works tirelessly to see you achieve your success. But remember, Grizzlies, it starts with you. Success does not sit solely on the shoulders of the school but with your partnership and efforts. Success begins with the Grizzly mindset of taking ownership of your learning, displaying that Grizzly Grit through difficult times, and asking for help as soon as it is needed. With that said, I challenge all Grizzlies to come to school every day on time, complete all assignments, and work hard to pass all classes with a C or higher, ultimately preparing you for college and careers. 

Parents, the partnership between student, parent, and teachers is essential to every student’s academic success. I encourage you to emphasize the importance of daily attendance with your student, communicate often with our teachers, and regularly monitor grades and academic progress through Canvas. In addition to Canvas, make sure you have created your Parent Square account and downloaded the app to receive up-to-date communication from our school. Together, we will ensure that your child is successful. For further support, please visit the Parent Resources tab to learn more about these opportunities. 

Los Osos High School is an amazing place to be. We look forward to our partnership and another incredible school year! 

Claws Up and Stay W.I.L.D!
