Welcome to Mr. Osborne's class!
Digital Design
Hello Parents and Guardians,
To make this year as successful as possible for you, please review the information on my page to get important information relating to class. Assignments and homework will be available through Google Classroom on the classwork tab. The "Stream" homepage of Google Classroom will be kept as minimal as possible, and will only show important updates from me. If students are absent from school, they can check the schedule and keep up with work if possible.
Please check the Genesis Parent Portal daily to keep up with any missing work!
All projects will have a due date, but students will be able to submit missing work until the final day of the marking period to be eligible for credit.
If you have any questions feel free to ask me before or after class, or e-mail me at [email protected]
A Little About Me:
I am currently in my 16th year of teaching and my 14th year here at Memorial. I currently hold a Bachelor's Degree ('08) and Master's Degree ('14) from The College of New Jersey. I completed my student teaching in Johannesburg, South Africa, where I taught at the American International School of Johannesburg. While in Africa, I learned a lot about what it means to be a global citizen, and took time to travel the country and volunteer whenever possible.
I have also been continuing my education beyond my Master's degree in order to stay up to date with current educational practices and developments. Even though I have been in the classroom for over a decade now, I am still learning every single day, and that will never stop!
For the past 12 years, I have been coaching the Spring Boys' and Girls' Track Team and am entering my 3rd year as coach of the 8th Grade Girls' Soccer Team and 6th year as coach of the 6th and 7th Grade Girls' Basketball Team.
My primary responsibility as a teacher is to keep my students safe. A large part of that is making sure the students feel comfortable and know that my room is a safe environment to be. I work very hard to ensure that ALL members of my classes are respected at all times, and feel free to take risks and understand that it is okay to be wrong or have questions. As such, I have a ZERO tolerance policy for any harassment, intimidation, or bullying and make it clear to all my students that such behavior has no place in my classroom.
