The Owego-Apalachin Teachers Association (OATA) held a "Back To School" rally Tuesday morning, September 2, at the Tioga County Courthouse Green. Teachers, administrators, and other school personnel gathered to get ready for the first day of school. In the past, the rally was held at the school and hosted by the Superintendent of Schools. According to Ben Frisbie, OATA President, the rally "is the critical pre-game pep talk" in their business.
