OUR MISSION: The Big Oak Montessori of Orange Park is dedicated to the total development of the constantly growing child. Our environments provide varying degrees of challenge from which children may, with guidance, choose work according to their level of development. We value that perpetuating a warm, caring, and nurturing community positively influences the direction of growth.

Big Oak Montessori is committed to individualized education, allowing children freedom to develop at their own pace. As the pace differs for each child, their accomplishments are unlimited and varied. We strive to satisfy a child's need to know, to achieve, to belong, to feel safe and secure, and to develop self-esteem.

The educational environment is enhanced by assimilating the strongest elements of existing programs, such as the Montessori teaching method, combined with proven, accelerated learning techniques using up-to-date technical innovations such as computer-aided instruction and audio-visual media systems.

Big Oak Monstessori does not discriminate on the basis of race, creed, sex, color, national or ethnic origin.
