Posted July 10, 2012

The staff provides a challenging and rigorous curriculum imparting knowledge beyond that of your average teacher due to many of their staff members having been educated in top notch universities. Furthermore, it can attribute its success to having a low pupil to teacher ratio, an administration whose sole focus is on the children and learning, parent involvement and relatively no behavior issues to impede student progress. It's a family atmosphere, very friendly, affording high moralistic values, and therefore their students enjoy going to school. Although it is an Islamically centered school, surprisingly, the tuition is more affordable than most other private schools in Baton Rouge. -Elaina

It's the only school in Baton Rouge that teaches Arabic & Islamic Studies of a high caliber & also other subjects, particularly Math & Science of an advanced level. My daughter in Grade ONE knows almost as much Math & Science & Reading as public school's Grade Two.

About these ratings

The Community Rating is the school’s average rating from its community members (e.g., parents, students, and school staff). The highest possible rating is five stars; the lowest is one star.

We currently do not have any test score information for this school. Unlike public schools, private schools are not always required to report data about their schools or not required to take the same tests as public schools. Many private schools take different standardized tests; however, that information is often made available only to families of enrolled students. We strive to acquire additional private school data whenever available.
