We did a little patriotic prep work today . .. even having a practice parade in KinderCamp! #PantherPride #LoveOurOPSFamily #WayOfThePanther #OurSchoolOurTownOurCountry

Our future Panthers are loving Kindercamp! 🐾 They’re exploring letters, numbers, words, and most importantly—friendship! 🦋 From raising butterflies to building confidence, it’s all smiles, play, and learning. #PantherPride #KindercampMagic

From coding and crafting to cartooning and reporting—our Summer Explorations students are busy creating, collaborating, and making memories! New skills, new friends, and a lot of Panther pride. 🐾☀️ #PantherExplorers #OPSsummer

The humidity was a wee bit high. The grass was a wee bit wet. However, it will always be one of our favorite days each year. There is nothing quite like an OPS Commencement Ceremony. From the ringing of the original school bell to the 6th graders joining together one more time in song, the tradition continues. #PantherPride #LoveOurOPSFamily #HelloRiverDellMS

Another Friday . . . another opportunity for OPS and OPD to join together for an event. We were thrilled to gather outside for a parade for Chief Liam and a lucky few students were able to see our Chief for a Day be sworn in at Borough Hall. #LoveOurOPSFamily #GreatDayForAParade

Curious about how the geosphere, biosphere, hydrosphere, and/or atmosphere interact? Find a fifth grader, and they will teach you all about it. Today, they used models to share their knowledge with fifth grade families. #PantherPride #SuperScientists #EngagedLearning

It's not to late to visit Oradell Arts Fest! And if you go, don't forget to check out our OPS student artwork on display in the Senior Center. #PantherPride #ShowcasingTheArts

There was so much to love about our May Board of Education meeting where we recognized retiring staff members, staff members reaching OPS anniversary milestones and our 2025 Educator of the Year. Students came to the podium to share stories about their teachers. Former OPS teachers returned to join in the celebration. Families of our staff members were able to be part of our OPS family for the night. It was a night to remember! #PantherPride #LoveOurOPSFamily #StrongRootsGrowAtOPS #WayOfThePanther #BestBoardMeeting

Congratulations to Oradell Boy Scout Troop 36's newest Eagle Scouts! It was a wonderful ceremony as we learned about the projects they accomplished and watched as they recognized the mentors in their lives. #SoBigNow #MakingADifference #PantherPride

It was a special day for our kindergarteners. They brought joy with their voices before sharing their favorite writing pieces from the year with their families. Thank you to our kindergarten and music teachers for continuing this wonderful tradition. #LoveOurOPSFamily #JustTheBeginning #WayOfThePanther #KindergartenCampOut

It was a beautiful day for OPS to collaborate with the Oradell Police Department for the 2025 Law Enforcement Torch Run to benefit Special Olympic athletes and programs. #LoveOurOPSFamily #WayOfThePanther #PantherPride
