Our Commitment to the Whole Child

The magic of Abess Park Elementary comes from our commitment to serving the whole student, the whole family, and the whole community. We believe true success doesn’t happen in isolation on a test or paper. Successful students are healthy, happy, confident, curious, and surrounded by a network of mutual kindness and support. Come to a school like no other in Duval County. Choose Abess Park Elementary. It’s where science and music work in concert to benefit your child.

Nurturing Environment

Nurturing children as they learn and grow is a collaborative effort, and we’re so proud to share this journey with every family that entrusts us with their child. We believe in addressing the whole child. That means focusing on educational, emotional, and social growth. It also means supporting parents and working harmoniously together to create an incredible learning environment.

Hands-On Learning

Our little Jaguars love coming to school every day because our teachers make learning interactive and use exciting real-world scenarios to teach. Every lesson incorporates themes of science and music wherever possible. We harness the power of rhythm to boost memory. We embrace the scientific method and spirit of discovery to keep students asking questions and seeking real answers.

Passion for Teaching and Learning

Abess Park students love learning, and not just in our science and music classes. We have an exceptional curriculum in terms of math, history, and so much more. One-on-one mentorship by both teachers and students helps foster a feeling of family, teaches responsibility, and improves social growth.
