Classes
The Muslim Center Junior High School follows a
curriculum in line with the guidelines of New York State Board of Education.
Our students learn all aspects of standard educational requirements,
including physical education, and have the option of studying
various electives such as technology and art. In addition, our students
receive instructions in beliefs and practices of
Islam, as well as learning the Arabic language.
Our goal is to offer our students a competitive
curriculum while adhering to the highest
possible Islamic and academic standards.
At the same time, we encourage our students to discover their potentials
via use of their talents; an initiative which includes spelling bees,
Quran and speech competitions, math olympiads, science and book fairs,
school plays and art exhibitions.
