About Us

Al-Iman School is an Islamic school which is a non-public, non-profit, tax-exempt educational organization accredited by AdvancED. Al-Iman School is also accredited by the Council of Islamic Schools of North America, and is a member the Islamic Schools League of America. Al-Iman School has been in operation for 27 years, and is one of the original Islamic Schools serving the Triangle community.

The school is located on the shared campus of the Islamic Association of Raleigh, (IAR) in the heart of one of the area’s premier universities, North Carolina State University. The current enrollment is over 250 students in Pre-Kindergarten through eighth grade. The graduating eighth grade class moves on to attend locally competitive Public, Charter and Early College High School Programs.

The classroom facilities for Pre-K through eighth grade students are located in two separate buildings. The Pre-Kindergarten-third grade is housed in their own separate building, with much of the infrastructure catered around the needs for these grade levels. Behind the building is a newly renovated playground in which students enjoy recreational activities throughout the school day. Fourth thru eighth grade is located on the third floor of the masjid facility. In this facility you can find a complete science lab, mobile computer carts, a gym with full-court basketball, a well equipped library and a cafeteria.

In addition to these facilities the Al-Iman student body is very diverse. Students come from a variety of cultural backgrounds such as Asian-American, White (European and Middle Eastern) and African-American. The diversity of Al-Iman is also evident in their staff, many of which are from diverse backgrounds as well. This diversity, in both students and staff, allows for students to have a broad understanding of Islamic teachings.

Principal's Message

Dear Al-Iman Families,

Assalamu Alaikum! Welcome to the 2026-2027 school year! We pray that you and your family had a restful summer and are excited for the year ahead. We are grateful that you have entrusted us with your children's education and look forward to partnering with you once again.

Our theme this year, Planting Seeds of Excellence, Harvesting Bright Futures, reminds us that every lesson, every act of kindness, every challenge overcome, and every moment of faith plants a seed that helps our children grow. Together, as parents and educators, we have the privilege and responsibility of nurturing those seeds so they flourish into strong character, deep faith, and academic success.

This year, our focus will be on five key areas:

Instructional Excellence: Providing engaging and challenging learning experiences that encourage students to think critically, ask questions, collaborate, and take ownership of their learning.
Islamic Integration: Strengthening our students' connection to Allah (SWT) by intentionally weaving Islamic values and character into every aspect of school life.

Data-Driven Growth: Using diagnostic and ongoing assessments to better understand each student's strengths and needs so we can provide meaningful support and celebrate growth throughout the year.

Positive Classroom Culture: Establishing strong classroom routines and expectations that foster respect, responsibility, and a love of learning from the very first day.

Safety & Security: Maintaining a safe, secure, and welcoming environment by continuing to prioritize the well-being of every student through consistent safety procedures and supervision.
We believe that the greatest success comes when home and school work together with a shared purpose. Your encouragement, involvement, and partnership play an essential role in your child's growth, and we are grateful to walk alongside you throughout this journey.

May Allah (SWT) bless our school community, strengthen our partnership, and grant our children a year filled with knowledge, excellent character, and success in this life and the next.

Jazakum Allahu Khairan,

Farea Khan
