Message from Mr. Ostini:
Hello, my name is Josh (Mr.!) Ostini. I'm over a quarter century old, have been married for over five years, have 1 kid (on the way), and 1 boxer dog. I like to travel, read, watch movies, and get run by my dog daily.
I am a graduate of California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo. While there I studied English before getting my Teaching Credential in English Language Arts. I was at PVHS from 2008-10, Freshman Prep Program from 2010-11(across from SMHS on Lincoln), and I am currently back at PVHS.
In the 2012-2013 School Year, I will be teaching Freshman and Sophomore English. I will also be coaching Cross Country.
