Program accomplishments

  • Northstar continued its work for another year, taking on the challenges of educating our Muslim youth as we have for years, but also working to refine and improve our approach to meet the unique needs of young people in our time. We worked to refine our curriculum and program approaches across all our academic and AQI studies. In an effort to improve our effectiveness, we focused on increasing our staff along with their resources and capacity. We continued to follow-up on our multi-year plans as laid out in our WASC accreditation school plan, and worked with consultants on our masterplan design for our future campus development. We made some major upgrade to our campus and had successful community engagement programs. Some of those included International Day, Jog-a-thon, Back to School night, and Family Mawlids. We are excited by the continued growth and progress of the school and its team.
