https://us02web.zoom.us/j/88320942569?pwd=SmpCcFlhYlA2c3UvUk5oS3psUjNFdz09

We will:

• introduce a new lunch program which uses an app called Boonli and provides conveniences, cost savings to families AND supports local businesses
• welcome Ms. Blakeslee from the Oradell Public Library, who will give us some updates

We hope you can make it!

Mini Photo Sessions

Due to popular demand, the website is accepting reservations again and two more days (10/1 and 10/2) were added! Book your sessions by Tuesday, 9/29.

Already had your session? Share your photos on social media with #RonAntonelliForOPS or
tag Ron on Instagram @RonAntonelliPhotography

Book your session here: https://ronantonelli.com/ops

Local photographer Ron Antonelli built a mini photo studio just for us. This studio, which is covered by a canopy and located on the lawn of OPS (on the Center Street side of the building), allows him to:

1. Take portraits of your OPS Student(s)
2. Turn the studio over to you so you can take additional portraits, sibling photos and family photos with a remote clicker
3. Families can see the photos as they are taken on a screen which is part of his OPS studio

These mini photo sessions are 10 minutes long and you will receive 20 – 40 digital copies a few weeks after your shoot.  These photos are yours to download.

Please note that families should not book sessions during a time when their child is supposed to be in school.

Finally, a huge thank you to Ron for his efforts!  He is donating a portion of every session fee to the PTA, which will be used for programming this year.
