the community among upperclassmen is good, but a lot of teachers, especially for APs, will rail you or dont teach as well, the coursework being nothing like college courses. Islamic knowledge is a joke. for middle school the teachers are pretty good but leave once u get to 10th, take better more diverse APs rather than both ap English. elementary is decent. If u r going there for high school, make sure to get Sr monifa and sr manal to like you, as they are probably the best teachers for what they teach.

I don't feel welcome to this school at all, It's an "okay" school but i wouldn't suggest it. The studies are harder than usual, and I felt so much anxiety. I mean the office and staff in general aren't very helpful either, it's not a professional school & isn't worth the money. Being clean is a huge part of Islam & being a Muslim, yet this school doesn't even carry soap in the bathrooms, and is filled with dirt. There was even rats in my classroom! the roof had a bird one time too, they need to change a few things. Good thing i'm out of this school now...

I've been in this school for as long as ten years, ever since kindergarten. What I like about this school? The grades in elementary to the beginning of middle prove to be just fine, the teachers are great and you can balance what you learn with Islam and regular studies, also having time to pray Zuhr in school. However, once a student gets close to high school, I think another school would be preferred. As a student gets older sometimes what the school has isn't enough. As a school running on funds from what parents pay, it has Arabic and Islam, yes, but not extracurricular activities that will help student's futures. Another thing the school really lacks that high school students usually have is the ability to choose what classes we want to take, the school sets out everything for you at the start. So overall a good school for elementary schoolers upto a year or two in middle, but then consider a transfer once the student hits high school.
