Once homeless, Tyler Osborne is headed to UNC-Chapel Hill
Posted Aug 5, 2018
Tyler Osborne was already familiar with the Kings Mountain High School graduation stage when he walked across it in June. Stored outdoors under an aluminum canopy, the stage was where Osborne spent nights when he couldn’t find a place to stay. With the school’s Wi-Fi reaching just far enough, it was also where he did homework for his AP classes. Osborne became homeless in 2016.
