Mission Statement
• At Pillars Academy, it is our objective to provide
healthy and rewarding learning environment for
Muslims students.
• To promote broad awareness of Islam for
Muslim students studying in Pre-K to 12th grade,
– by emphasizing upon Islamic teachings,
fundamentals, ideologies and legacy.
• To this end, to use a comprehensive syllabus, carefully
selected textbooks, and knowledgeable instructors to
intellectually stimulate the students to grow up as
responsible, committed Muslim citizens living in the West,
and help them make Islam as a way of life
Pillars’ Staff
• Volunteers
• Keep in mind these are selected teachers I
have provided for this term.
– Acknowledge that they have a responsibility
to their students and to the principle
• They have an extensive teachers pack they must
abide and follow
– Respecting that they are willing to teach our
children, take time from their schedule and
help and guide them on the path of Islam.
Classes
• Since the main medium of instruction is English,
the ability of students to understand and
communicate in English is important.
• All classes are co-educational
– Exceptions are 11-13 and above
• The school will follow a systematic,
comprehensive curriculum, developed by
Weekend Learning Publishers another with other
publishers
Attendence
• Parents are advised to drop off their
children at least 5 minutes before school
starts
• All parents should avoid tardiness at the
time of arrival and leaving the school. All
tardiness at the time of arrival should be
reported to the front desk before the child
can go to the class
The School is not a Daycare
•Parents are expected to understand that the
school is not a daycare center.
• Children should not be sent or enrolled in the
school with the intention to provide them daycare
services while parents are out.
•To that end, children are expected to study for
classes, do home works, be attentive in class
and participate in school activities.
•Parents are expected to drop them off and pick
them up on a timely manner.
Tuition
• By enrolling your child/children in the school,
you are entering into a contract with the school.
• If in the middle of the school year, a parent
decides to withdraw their child/children, they are
liable to pay the tuition of the remainder of the
school year.
• We ask that if you have not paid tuition of your
child, please do not send the student to
school until the tuition is made current.
