Michigan Islamic Academy is a model school with outstanding teachers and school administration. Profoundly dedicated teachers make the learning experience a world class. All Students get a unique education in a wonderful and diverse environment. I recommend MIA to all parents who seek curriculum that is within the national qualification framework and lots of spiritual enrichment.

What I like about this school is the friendly environment and the warmth our kids receive from teachers and staff. Students are well motivated and failure is really not an option, mostly because parents would not allow it and not because of teachers' efforts. The Islamic environment is great and the Arabic program is fantastic. Overall, it is an excellent place to build the Islamic character we can really be proud of. Academically, students are doing excellent, but many parents provide a lot of supplements. The one thing that the school needs the most is a bunch of educators that we can call 'Great Teachers'.

About the tests


In 2012-2013 Michigan used the Michigan Educational Assessment Program (MEAP) to test students in grades 3 through 8 in math, reading and writing; in grades 5 and 8 in science; and in grades 6 and 9 in social studies. The MEAP is a standards-based test, which measures how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Michigan. The goal is for all students to score at or above the proficient level.

Beginning in the 2011-2012 school year, the Michigan State Board of Education implemented new definitions of what it means to be proficient on the MEAP test. The new standards for proficiency are higher than in previous years and the percent of students earning a proficient score is expected to be lower as a result of this change.
