- The preschool and Kindergarten child needs to be in a place where a child can grow and flourish intellectually, social, emotionally and physcially. Each child's talents, needs interests and capabilities are unique to that child.

OPK in Orange Park is a GREAT SCHOOL! The kids play outside in this huge playground heaven, loaded with cool climbing toys, including monkey bars, a path for bikes and these great tricycles. My son walks into the play area and jumps on a bike. They go outside 3 times a day. The teachers are great, personable and caring. I always was walking into the school late, around 9:30 am and I saw the school busy. All of the kids in all of the classes I passed by were happy and busy doing some cool activity. They have a lot of free playtimes. And so many different things to do and play with. I would highly recommend it to other parents who want their kids to have free play. We will miss it a lot. I am moving outside the country.
