DSC_0539 (1).JPG — Our Mission

Is to create an environment in which the intellectual and spiritual principles of human beings blossom. We wish to nourish a garden of children who will grow into responsible, knowledgeable adults, who will then use their knowledge to positively impact a world where justice, service, and responsibility prevail.

Our Vision

Inspired by the teachings of the Holy Qur'an, and the tradition of the Holy Prophet (s) and Ahlul-Bayt (as), we will continually strive to deliver the highest quality academic education within the most ethical and moral Islamic atmosphere.

Our Philosophy

“Seek Knowledge from the cradle to the grave.” -Prophet Muhammad (s)
We firmly believe that education is an ongoing process that takes a multitude of forms, both within and outside the classroom. We understand that children of the same chronological age vary developmentally, and that is important to teach skills that are appropriate for the level of each unique child. We strive to maintain an educational program that encourages experimentation, communication, problem-solving, exploration, critical thinking, discovery, discussion, growth, and social skills, while embedding and nurturing Islamic principles and values throughout the process. We believe that these values as instilled through peer and adult interaction will allow children to develop a positive self-image, a thirst for education, and an understanding of and love for their faith.
