School Notes

The Islamic Academy of Burlington County was officially founded in September of 2008 and was registered with the State of New Jersey Department of Education as a private school. The formalized school was the natural progression of what had been a homeschooling network beginning in July 2005. Currently, the school has approximately 200 registered students, 40 full-time & part-time teachers, as well as many volunteers. The school currently offers Pre-K through 12th Grade & has had 7 batches of graduates since 2017 who have gone on to receive admission from Temple University, Drexel University, Rutgers University, NJIT, TCNJ, & Rowan University and have acquired or gone on to pursue degrees in many different disciplines:
  • Mechanical Engineering
  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Computer Engineering
  • Computer Science
  • Physics
  • Biology
  • Nursing
  • Psychology
  • Political Science
  • Accounting
  • Marketing
  • HVAC (Technical School)

IABC is currently offering a PreK-12thCollege Preparatory program designed for families interested in theTarbiyaof their children in a very traditionalIslamicenvironment and providing them with a very strong academic foundation for higher education.

The program we currently have is designed for highly motivated students & parents. The Common Core Curriculum subjects (Language Arts and Math), Science, Social Studies, etc., are taught on an honors track. All students by the 6th grade are taking honors classes as we do not have the personnel to handle multiple tracks for remedial learners or students with special education needs. In addition to the required Common Core Curriculum subjects, students are expected to:

  • Memorize Portions of the Quran (Abridged Tahfeez Program approximately 5 Juzz over 8 years)
  • Study/Master Fus'ha (Quranic) Arabic (over 8 years) to be able to comprehend the Qur'an
  • Study/Master the rules of Tajweed to properly recite the Qur'an
  • Study Seerah/History of Islam/Stories of Sahabah, etc.

All of the above translates into an extraordinary amount of homework and workloadoutside of school. This requires highly motivated students and parents to encourage them regularly in order to keep up with the requirements. Thisinformationaims to prepare a prospective family for the expectations at IABC.

The basis of admission is as follows:

  • Past performance from previous schooling, including Standardized Testing results
  • Previous study of the Quran/Arabic (particularly for transfer students in 2nd grade & above)
  • IABC Basic Skills Testing (Entrance Exam, includes ELA, Math & Arabic components)
  • Parent/Child Interview (upon successful completion of IABC Basic Skills Testing)

Our facility is a modest facility built for our needs. It includes the two Mussallahs (Brothers/Sisters) and, currently, 18 total classrooms. IABC is both a Masjid and anIslamicSchool.
