LAKE LIFE

To kick-off the start of the school year and welcome new families, OLL celebrated with our annual Ice Cream Social during the first week of school. This year, the event was made even more special with the official ribbon-cutting of our new expanded playground! Thanks to all those who donated or took part in our fundraising events to help make this project a reality for our students!

Thanks to the success of our Early Childhood program, we were also able to renovate an existing classroom over the summer to meet the demands of our growing Preschool family. OLL now has two Pre-K3 and two Pre-K4 full-day classes to make room for even more future Lakers!

The Home School Association (HSA) invites you to join us at the Annual Cocktail Reception on Friday, November 1, 2024, from 6-10 PM at The Highlawn in West Orange, NJ. Indulge in an unlimited beer, wine, and sparkling bar and choose from a delightful array of hors d'oeuvres, charcuterie table, pasta and steak stations (new for 2024!), and dessert as you take in iconic panoramic views of the New York City skyline. This is the perfect opportunity to mingle with fellow parents, teachers, and community members while enjoying our tricky tray, silent auction, and cash-only 50/50 raffle.

How to Participate
