On this episode of Social Chats we will be speaking with Dr. Atikah Osman, a passionate and purpose-driven school leader who’s making waves in education by blending high expectations with heart. She serves in one of California’s largest urban school districts, where she’s known for championing equity, academic rigor, and culturally relevant teaching.
Dr. Osman was named ACSA Region 17 Co-Administrator of the Year in 2024 and is a 2025 NASSP California State Finalist for Assistant Principal of the Year—recognition that speaks to her deep impact on student success, teacher growth, and school culture.
She’s not just about test scores and titles, though. Atikah leads with authenticity, celebrates her community loudly and proudly, and believes that storytelling—whether through students, staff, or social media—is a powerful leadership tool. Whether she’s coaching teachers, spotlighting school culture and student life, or reimagining professional development, her focus is clear: empower people and create a school where everyone feels they belong.
