In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

Assalam Alaikum Parents,

Alhamdullilah, it is with great honor that I join the IEF system this year as principal of Al-Hikmah School. In taking this position, I inherited the tradition of Academic and Islamic Excellence that was established by former leaders. I also inherited a lovely community of dedicated and educated parents who have made the education of their children their life's goal and purpose.

By the grace of God, this year has afforded us the opportunity to put our school on a new and focused path. By using research of best school practices, our administrative staff has been working hard to restructure our school to meet the needs of all learners.

Alhamdullilah, within the first months of our school year, I have seen a quick and dedicated turn-around in our staff. Our teachers have used the past months to go above-and-beyond the call of duty, even as we ask them to take on more responsibilities than we have in the past.

I hope that our children have benefited from all of the changes over the past months and that we can, as a community, continue to create a more positive schooling experience for our children.

I am happy with our progress so far this year and look forward to more positive change as our school becomes even more productive and peaceful for our students. Thank you to all of our parents, staff, and board members for your continued support of our children!
