Osbourn Park High

Summary:

Osbourn Park High is a public magnet high school serving grades 9-12 in Manassas, Virginia, part of the Prince William County Public Schools district. The school has seen a steady decline in its statewide ranking over the past few years, but it still maintains a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating it is performing above average compared to other Virginia high schools.

One of Osbourn Park High's key strengths is its racial diversity, with a student population that is 21.91% White, 16.97% African American, 42.4% Hispanic, 13.71% Asian, and 4.53% two or more races. The school particularly excels in supporting its African American students, ranking 4th out of 249 Virginia high schools for this subgroup. However, the school struggles with other subgroups, such as Hispanic students and English Language Learners, where it ranks lower in the state. Osbourn Park High also outperforms the district and state in several SOL test subjects, but lags behind higher-performing schools in the Fairfax County Public Schools district.

Another notable trend at Osbourn Park High is the significant increase in its free and reduced lunch rate, from 32.25% in 2021-2022 to 47.48% in 2022-2023. This suggests the school is serving a growing population of economically disadvantaged students, which may have implications for the school's resources, support services, and overall academic performance. While Osbourn Park High outperforms nearby schools like Manassas Park High and Osbourn High, it faces challenges in maintaining its statewide ranking and addressing the needs of certain student subgroups.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
