Otsego High School

Love the facilities, the staff, the community awareness and cooperativeness. Schools and community work well together to provide activities

I love this school and always have. The new facilities are great and you can not argue with the fact that updated facilities help the teachers do their jobs. Kids will be kids they are always going to complain about school, I did when I went there, now I know better.

Our school is terrible, no funding, no scholarships, and barely any safety.

I've attended Otsego Public Schools my entire life and have had no major problems and enjoyed my experience. They have some issues in high school such as class availability, but once the new high school opens and they switch to trimesters, this should be fixed. After the construction is complete Otsego will have a state of the art district that we should all be proud of and I would gladly send my children to in the furture.

It seems that most of the posts here are about venting problems that are not specific to OHS. No school is perfect. If you are looking for faults in any school, organization, business or community they can be found. My experience is that OHS (especially the principal) is a tight-knit, supportive learning environment. Is the glass half-full, or half-empty. Remember, the grass is always greener on the other side of the school district boundary.

This school i admit is a bad school and has very bad disipline problems. there are a few good quilities like the band and the leadership with in the student body. that leadership is defintly not in the adminastration, it is with the students.

I attended OHS several years ago. My children have attended several schools, as my job has caused relocations. If the option where available to me for them to attend Otsego schools, I would jump at it. It seems most of these 'poor' reviews are from children attending school, not parents. Otsego is a relatively small community, many of the children there have lived their entire lives in the community. This causes them to have nothing to make an educated comparison with. I had many of the same feelings until I had lived away for several years.

After reading the parents remarks on this site I just had to comment. Otsego has been an AWESOME school for me and my 4 sons. We are not rich and we do not get treated like crap. My oldest son IS a football player but he does not get treated special because of it. Two of my sons also have required the special education program and both have been treated with nothing but respect from EVERY staff member from Elementary to High School. I have lived here 5 years, moved here for the sole purpose of having my kids in a GOOD school and I have found it!! Seems to me that some students and parents need to learn how to mind their mannors and they would not have the issues I read about on this board.
