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 grow into responsible, knowledgeable adults.
OUR PHILOSOPHY is that knowledge should be sought ”from the cradle to the grave.” We believe in the importance of an early education and that education is an ongoing process. We also believe that children of the same chronological age vary greatly developmentally. It is important to teach skills which are appropriate for the developmental level of the child. Having an educational program which encourages experimentation, exploration, discovery discussion, critical thinking, communication, problem solving, growth, and social skills through positive peer and adult interaction is prioritized.
With emphasis on Islamic value, City of Knowledge helps children develop a positive self-image and a respect for education.The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said that for the first seven years, the child is to be treated as a king; he/she needs unconditional attention. From ages 7-14, the child is to be treated as a subject; he/she learns the rules and regulations that order are the order of life, and is expected to grow in the strength of his/her understanding. Lastly, from ages 14-21, a child is to be treated as a minister; he/she expected to be consulted and to advise and is expected to be able to make responsible collaborative decisions.
OUR VISION Inspired by the teachings of the Holy Quran and the tradition of the Holy Prophet (SW) and Ahlul-Beyt (AS) we will continually strive to deliver the highest quality academic education within the most ethical and moral Islamic atmosphere
