Islam is the basis of our curriculum and is integrated into academic and social instruction throughout the day. In addition to Qur’anic instruction all students focus on learning and applying a special weekly ayah or surah. We pray the noon prayer together throughout the year and also Asr when it occurs during the school day. |

In math, students use models, manipulative and visual thinking to explore, develop understanding, and solve problems. Science, social studies, language and Islamic studies are integrated within themes. This is compatible with the functional design of the brain and with the Islamic vision of knowledge. |

Our reading program is literature-based and theme-related. Writing, like reading, is done across the curriculum and skills are taught in context. We stress the love and importance of the Arabic language. By immersing students in Arabic, we enable them to progress naturally from hearing, understanding and speaking classical Arabic to reading with understanding Qur’an, hadeeth and other sources of our religion. |
