Weekly Parent Newsletter (Week 13)
From the Desk of Mr. O'Shea
Thank You!
I hope that each and every one of you have a wonderful thanksgiving break. I truly believe that Otsego High School is a special place to work and come to school and I am thankful every day of my life that I have the opportunity to be a part of this community. I am proud to be an Otsego Knight and I hope you are too! I hope these next few days you have the opportunity to connect with family and friends, and take the opportunity to show gratitude for the gifts in your life. Don’t dwell on the negative rather focus on the good in your life.
