What a day! 6th graders kicked us off by packing the buses, and 5th graders crushed their hikes. The weather and views are beautiful . Tired, happy campers tonight. 🐾 #outdoorclassroom #opstradition

Just a little reminiscing as we prepare for today's festivities . . . did you know that when the @riverdellhighschool seniors were in 6th grade, it rained too much to have our typical parade? But you know what we say at OPS . . . when life gives you lemons, make lemonade! It was an amazing day for our kids!!!! @OnceAPantherAlwaysAPanther @PantherPride @LoveOurOPSFamily

🚴♀️🚶♂️ Stop, Look, Listen, and Wave! Our 3rd–6th graders learned key pedestrian and bike safety tips today with @ezride_ig. Thanks for helping our Panthers stay alert, visible, and safe wherever they go! 🐾 #TheWayOfThePanther

We made it in before the rain! It was a wonderful morning to come together at one of our favorite events of the year: the Oradell 5K and Fun Run sponsored by Oradell Kids Foundation in partnership with the Oradell Volunteer Fire Department. @OradellKids @OradellFire #LoveOurOPSFamily #PantherPride #CanYouFindTheRDSupt

No apple picking for our staff today. They were too busy preparing to plant more seeds of knowledge tomorrow. Today's Professional Day focused on assessment practices, our new math resource, CPR certification, the role of technology in the learning process and more! #LoveOurOPSFamily #NeverStopLearning #1%BetterEveryDay

While we love the excitement of a new school year, the first full week in September feels 100 days long! To say thank you to the staff for their efforts the past two weeks, the administrative team held an ""Orange" You Glad It's Friday!" staff spirit day complete with orange snacks, drinks and clothes! #LoveOurOPSFamily #GreatStart #PantherPride

Today was a full day of learning and preparing for the year ahead. Thank you to the PTA for starting us off with breakfast and the OEA for feeding us lunch. We can't wait for tomorrow when our hallways and our classrooms are once again filled with students! #ReadyToGo #PantherPride #LoveOurOPSFamily

As we prepare to welcome staff back tomorrow, the reason we are ready to open is because of these five individuals. They interviewed, hired and provided orientation to new staff, worked on operational changes, updated curriculum, and when they thought they would have a day to rest . . . they found themselves painting panther paws to help our new kindergartners find their way around the school. #PantherPride #LoveOurOPSFamily #Grateful #Wasn'tInTheInterview

As we gear up for a new school year, let's take a moment to reflect on how lucky we are to work and learn in one of the most beautiful school buildings around. We have a dedicated gym, library, art room, STEAM lab, music rooms and a recently renovated auditorium. Special thanks to our custodial crew for getting us ready to open next week. #PantherPride #Grateful #LoveOurOPSHome #ShinyFloors=September
