Family Resource Center
At Otsego Public Schools, we know that kids can't learn at their best if they're hungry, tired, worried, or in need. We take a whole child approach in our educational philosophy which means we serve students' academic, social-emotional, and basic needs. We have several resources here at school as well as connections within our community to provide your family the help and support you need. Please reach out with any questions!
