Islamic Academy of Riverside is committed to providing students with sustainable quality-faith based education that prepares students for the 21st century.
Our aim is to prepare students to effectively deal with the challenges of a modern technologically advanced society.
The school seeks to develop in each student a positive identity as an American Muslim who is equipped physically, intellectually, and spiritually to compete in today’s world, and to establish within each student a strong commitment to family, community and humanity.
Our philosophy is based upon the “Developmental Approach” which entails teaching skills appropriate for the developmental age of each individual student in an active learning environment.
Our teachers promote critical thinking and problem-solving through experimentation, exploration, and discovery.
An emphasis on Islamic values and responsibilities as American-Muslims help our students develop a positive self-image and prepares their American-Muslim identity.
