Community Action Athletes

The Community Action Athletes program gives the Osbourn High School (OHS) student-athletes the opportunity to help others.  At  Osbourn High School our student-athletes are able to combine their  dedication in the classroom and perseverance on the playing field with a  desire to benefit the local community. Community Action Athletes is a  volunteer club committed in promoting our school and our  student-athletics, coaches, and staff in a positive light; through a  multitude of charitable community programs. The plan is to “give back”  by continuing work with area hospitals, youth groups, volunteer  organizations, and our schools, throughout the year. The  main focus of Community Action Athletes is to instill a better sense of  pride in the school and community and by providing opportunities for  student-athletes to serve. Student-athletes also have the ability to  initiated and implemented service projects/activities with the  assistance and support from the OHS Athletic Booster Club

Participating  in Community Action Athletes allows our student-athletes see the  positive impact they can have on others and their communities. It's  a chance for our student-athletes to learn what it means to be part of  something bigger than themselves as they make a connection and  relationships within their community.” Our  student-athletes are primarily known for what they do in the competition  arena, but they are just as accomplished for what they do for the  community when the spotlight isn’t on them.”
 

“Read  with Eagle Pride”; a component of the Community Action Athletes program  is intended to aid elementary school teachers by providing reading  incentives for elementary school students in Manassas.  “Read  with Eagle Pride” includes our student-athletes (in uniform) to visit  schools and read to elementary school students; the program also allows  elementary school students the opportunity to earn Eagle gifts along the  way. Among the prizes given out are autographed team photos, posters,  t-shirts and chances to meet Eagle student-athletes at various sporting  events.
