It is our pleasure to welcome you to Salam Academy, your community school, hereafter referred to as “S.A.” The staff at S.A. is dedicated to providing the best possible education in an Islamic environment. As the only accredited Islamic school in New Mexico, we strive to promote Islamic ideals and values. Our emphasis is to produce future generations of Muslims who will carry the Islamic traditions and values forward.
S.A. counts heavily on parent involvement and support. Parental and community support are crucial to the success of our institution. We hope that you will share the commitment to Islamic education by supporting school activities and volunteering your time on a regular basis.
We strongly emphasize parental support because it provides the bedrock for the parent/child relationship which is emotionally sustaining, contributing much to the strength of attachment by which the child feels secured. It never loses importance no matter how old the child is.
These handbooks are to inform you about the school. Please print, review and keep it for reference throughout the year. Also, a school newsletter will be sent home whenever needed to keep parents updated and informed about school events.
