Los Osos High School Grizzlies, Students, Parents, and Families,
The 2025–26 school year is off to a strong start, and the first quarter is already flying by! Thanks to the dedication of our staff, student leaders, and parent volunteers, we are excited for what lies ahead and remain committed to preparing every student for success on the road before them.
At Los Osos, we provide a wide range of academic supports to ensure our students have the tools they need to thrive. These efforts are rooted in our schoolwide vision: “All students at Los Osos will graduate ready for college and career.” Strengthening college readiness through increased A-G completion and reduced freshman failure rates continues to guide our academic goals. Enhancing classroom instruction, expanding tutoring opportunities, and offering targeted support programs remain top priorities. In addition, our Peer Counseling and Reach Out programs provide essential resources to support mental health and wellness, helping students achieve balance and success both inside and outside the classroom.
Beyond academics, extracurricular involvement is a cornerstone of the Los Osos experience. Our school offers an impressive variety of Visual and Performing Arts programs, clubs, sports teams, and student organizations to match every interest. Whether through the Gardening Club’s hands-on projects, our award-winning robotics team, nationally recognized FBLA and Speech & Debate programs, or countless other opportunities, Grizzlies have countless ways to discover passions, build skills, and form lasting connections. These activities not only enrich the high school experience but also foster leadership and a strong sense of community.
As we continue into this school year, I want to remind our Grizzlies that Hard Work Pays Off! Our staff is devoted to guiding you toward your dreams, but success begins with you. It starts with embracing the Grizzly mindset: taking ownership of your learning, showing resilience during challenges, and seeking help when needed. I challenge every Grizzly to attend school daily and on time, complete all assignments, and strive to earn a C or higher in every class. These habits will prepare you for the opportunities of college, career, and beyond.
Parents, your partnership with us is vital. I encourage you to emphasize the importance of daily attendance, stay connected with teachers, and consistently monitor your student’s progress through Canvas. Please also be sure you have set up and are using ParentSquare to receive timely communication from our school. Together, we form the strong foundation that ensures every student’s success. For additional guidance, I invite you to visit the Parent Resources tab on our school website.
Los Osos High School is an amazing place to learn, grow, and lead. We look forward to working alongside you for another remarkable school year!
Claws Up and Stay W.I.L.D!
Eric Cypher
Principal of Los Osos High School
