Mrs. El-Alami, Principal
Ansar Training:
Last Saturday, eighth and seventh grade students participated
in a leadership training program. The program aimed at
preparing students to uphold responsibilities in the school
and to plan ahead for greater responsibilities during
high school and college years. Three speakers presented
the sessions:
Sh. Hamid, our Imam, gave an introduction
to leadership and the dire need in our societies for skilled
and pious leaders.
Br. Salman Shazeeb, our computer teacher
and an active member of WPI MSA, presented an exciting
session on lessons from leadership stories.
Sr. Siama Muhammad, a BU Dental School
Alumni and an active MAS member, gave an overview on the
etiquettes of leadership.
A follow-up session may be scheduled during the year,
potentially to include other youth from the community.
Meanwhile, our Ansar members will be responsible for many
tasks around the building. We ask Allah (SWT) to make
this the first step in a lifelong full of service to Him.
Tardy Students
Many students have been coming late to school. Tardy
time starts at 8:05 and will be reported in the
student report card of the term. Students coming late
to school are missing the daily Ramadan quiz, important
information, and announcements during the morning assembly.
They are also less prepared to start the day on the right
note causing disruption to their learning and to other
classmates. Please take the necessary steps to
bring your child to school on time.
Pakistan Relief
Donations
Our
students have been practicing their Ramadan value of the
week, “charity”, through donating to Pakistan.
Students have been encouraged to sense responsibility
towards their suffering fellow Muslims. A box has been
designated to drop off donations. So far, many students
have contributed. Please encourage your child to bring
in a donation to the school in order to feel a connection
to the greater Muslim body. Small sums are as welcome
as big ones. The final amount will be sent through the
Islamic Relief organization.
