It might feel a little springy outside, but last Tuesday, 2nd- and 3rd-graders brought the Winter Olympics to life during Family STEAM Night! ❄️🎿
Students explored the science behind winter sports through hands-on challenges, testing ideas, building, and problem-solving just like real athletes and engineers. From motion and force to teamwork and creativity, it was learning in action!

To say thank you to some of the people who have helped them through the years, 6th grade students delivered popcorn care packages to our school nurse, custodians, police officers, fire fighters and crossing guards! The goal of the 6th Grade Give Back Program is to find ways for students to use their strengths to show gratitude and find ways to make the world a better place with small actions. #LoveOurOPSFamily #BigSchoolBigHeart #SmallActionsBigImpact #OPSClassof2026
Today our 3rd and 4th graders had the opportunity to learn from author @janowitzjessie! 📚✨
Jessie Janowitz shared her writing process, highlighted the importance of hooking readers, and introduced students to “read-alike” books related to her work. She even got everyone involved with a fun game of Two Truths and a Lie!

Thank you to @oradell_pta for sponsoring an incredible author visit with Gordan Korman for our 5th and 6th graders! 📚✨ It was a treat to hear an excerpt from his latest book, Hypergifted, and to learn about his journey as a writer—from starting at just 12 years old to where he is today. His insights, stories, and humor truly inspired our students!

Second-grade engineers were hard at work today! 🍀 Students teamed up with their families to design and build leprechaun traps, putting their knowledge of the engineering design process into action. There was creativity, problem-solving, and teamwork throughout the room. Now we wait… fingers crossed someone catches a leprechaun tonight! 🌈✨

Tuesday night, we celebrated Noche de Español at OPS! Our kindergarten students sang their Spanish songs, and student representatives from grades 1–6 shared the projects they’ve been working on throughout the year. It was a wonderful evening celebrating language, culture, and the hard work of our students.

As part of the science curriculum, 3rd graders study weather conditions and the impact of the weather. In the STEAM lab, students are using Tinkercad to design buildings to withstand extreme weather conditions. #FullSTEAMAhead #PantherPride #Future Architects&Engineers
Just a normal Wednesday night at OPS for our second graders . . . making non-Newtonian fluids (AKA: Oobleck), blowing bubbles, creating patterns, designing spin art, drawing 2D shapes, building 3D shapes and more. To make it even more special, let's do it in the dark at our first ever GLOW STEAM NIGHT! #LoveOurOPSFamily #STEAMTastic #FamilyFun #GlowingFloorsForever
