No,

Your OPT is not a visa to re enter,it's only a permit for you to work legally in US for a year.Your permission from your employer makes no difference.Get H1 and travel or maintain your status by joining the school and travel in F1 visa.

OPT is not a visa and once you start working your F1 visa is invalid.
