My daughter has been attending An-Noor Academy in Piscataway, NJ, since prekindergarten, and she is now in 8th grade. It is one of the top Islamic schools in central New Jersey. The teachers are highly knowledgeable in both Islamic teachings and contemporary education. They are committed to nurturing well-mannered students and fostering good moral character, which is often missing in public schools today. An-Noor Academy provides a well-balanced education.

I am a former An-Noor Academy student and they helped me memorize surahs, learn how to pray, be a good Muslim etc. They had daily prayer times where students would go to make wudu and then they would pray in the masjid. They have nice teachers, and it is a comforting environment.
