Program:
The Islamic Weekend School is focused on providing the basic
Islamic education and Islamic values to our children. The
curriculum is focused on three areas:
1. Quran 2. Arabic 3. Islamic Studies
We have a set program and well-defined curriculum. Our dedicated
and talented staff of volunteer teachers follows the curriculum,
as much as possible.
Statement of Objectives:
-
We want the children to be believing and practicing Muslims.
-
We want them to believe in Allah in their hearts and
recognize that He is their Lord.
-
We want the children to be aware of their duty to Allah and
to be motivated to do ‘Ibadah.
-
We want the children to have knowledge of the teaching and
practices of Islam.
-
The children must know why Islam is a better way of life
than everything they see around them.
-
We want the children to develop character, better manners
and a respectful demeanor.
-
We want the children to be able to relate Islamic beliefs
and teachings to non-Muslims in a coherent and compelling
way
Levels:
Students are divided into knowledge ability levels. Give an
entrance exam to the students when their parents bring them to
register for the
Weekend School. This test will determine how much
they know about Quran. Arabic and Islam. Then, place them in
Mastery Level 1, 2, 3. Advanced studies for college level
students will be considered.
The exact knowledge and subject matter for
each class will vary according to their level. One of our goals
should be to give the students something to look forward to.
They should expect that something different would come as they
advance through the grades. This is only possible if the
students have a similar level of knowledge. Then the teacher can
build the instruction from there.
