Hello.  My name is Jeff Osborn.  This is my 50th year of teaching!!  I have been in the Northwest Arctic Borough since 1994.  I came to Ambler in 1996.  The majority of this time I taught grades five and six.  I have also taught Language Arts and Social Studies in the high school.  My wife Barbara and I were mushers for many years.  At one time we had a kennel of 50 dogs.  This "hobby" involved fishing in the summer and an ice net in winter to help feed our dogs.
