Summary — 2/18/2026:
Our monitoring of Otsego Local, Local School District has identified 3 agenda items that warrant community action.
PRIORITY LEVEL 8
Secret Hires Hidden in Vague Agenda Item
📅  Vote on Feb 19, 2026
Item 7.A asks the Board to approve a list of new personnel hidden in a document titled 'Supt. Rec.pdf'. This is a classic tactic to create and fill activist positions like 'DEI Coordinator' or 'SEL Specialist' without public scrutiny. They are counting on you not to check the file.
Recommended Action
INVESTIGATE: Review the file 'Supt. Rec.pdf' attached in the Official Agenda to determine if it contains new administrative roles. If it does, immediately call Board President Brad Anderson at (419) 823-4381 and demand the vote be tabled.
💰  Cost: Potential Permanent Activist Bureaucrat
PRIORITY LEVEL 7
Blank Check for Vague 'Specialized Services'
📅  Vote on Feb 19, 2026
The board is approving two service agreements (Items 6.E & 6.F) with the Wood County ESC for 'Consortium' and 'Specialized Services.' These vague titles could hide anything from routine IT support to radical DEI training for teachers. No contract details or costs are provided.
Recommended Action
Email Superintendent Kevin O'Shea at koshea@otsegoknights.org: 'I demand Items 6.E and 6.F be tabled until the full text and cost of the Wood County ESC service agreements are made public. We will not approve blank checks for unknown services.'
💰  Cost: Blank Check
PRIORITY LEVEL 6
Last-Minute Revenue Report Hides Financial Details
📅  Meeting on Feb 19, 2026
The Treasurer is presenting the 'Estimate of Revenues' at the meeting, not posting it with the agenda (Item 6.B). This prevents parents and taxpayers from reviewing the numbers and asking tough questions. This tactic undermines public oversight of your money.
Recommended Action
Email Treasurer Steve Carroll at scarroll@otsegoknights.org: 'Why is the Estimate of Revenues being withheld from the public until the meeting? I demand all financial documents be posted with the agenda for proper public review.'
💰  Cost: Opaque Financials
