• Students who are getting picked up for an early dismissal: You will sign yourself out and wait for your parent to arrive in the front.
• Student drivers: Your parent MUST call in to the Attendance Line to alert the office that their child is leaving early.
• **Remember parents still need to call in to report this early dismissal, but they don't have to get out of the car to sign you out.

School Fees: High School Fee Invoices get emailed to each family in October. Details to come. Pay to Participate goes through Joyce Wright in the JH office.

Locker Signs: If you are decorating your locker you must only use magnets for any locker decoration. No tape of any kind will be allowed as this damages the lockers.

2021 Otsego High School FAFSA Completion Night Registration - CLICK HERE

This semester, Otsego is conducting Teen Mental Health First Aid (tMHFA) training. This is evidence-based training that teaches teens the skills they need to recognize and help their friends with mental health and substance use challenges and crises and how to get the help of an adult quickly.

Teens often turn to each other when stressed or upset, and when friends try to help, they sometimes take on too much. tMHFA teaches them they don’t have to take these problems on alone.

The course is not being introduced because of any specific problems at Otsego. Mental health challenges are very common in teens and we will not be discussing any individual events.

The course is being taught by Mary Gase, from the Wood County Educational Service Center. All instructors teaching the course have received special training and are certified to teach the course by Mental Health First Aid USA at the National Council for Behavioral Health. This course will be taught during success period, twice a week for three weeks.

The following is an overview of what will be addressed:

• Recognize early warning signs that a friend is developing a mental health challenge.

• Recognize warning signs that a friend may be experiencing a mental health crisis.

• Describe how to talk to a friend about mental health and seeking help.

• Explain when and how to get a responsible adult involved.

• Discuss where to find appropriate and helpful resources about mental health challenges and professional help.

• Apply the TMHFA Action Plan to help a friend with a mental health challenge or crisis.

Teens will receive a Certificate of Completion for taking the course and a manual to use during the course that they can take home after the last session.

If you do not want your child to receive these lessons please fill out the following form and have them bring it to the HS office. CLICK HERE
