Curriculum
At Averroes, we offer a holistic education that nurtures students’ Islamic identities while fostering emotional, social, ethical, and academic growth. By integrating social and emotional learning (SEL) across disciplines, our curriculum equips students to think critically, engage thoughtfully, and contribute meaningfully to their communities.
Islamic Education
At Averroes, we take pride in providing an education that nurtures and strengthens students’ Islamic identities and practices. Each class and activity is carefully designed to introduce students to a range of topics essential for understanding themselves as Muslims in today’s world. Through this approach, students develop the knowledge and skills necessary to apply their understanding of Islam to the challenges of their time and to engage thoughtfully with the ideas and practices of the world.
Social And Emotional Learning
Social and emotional intelligence (SEL) is a key predictor of success, influencing academic performance, career achievement, health, and overall well-being (source: APA Journal).
At Averroes, SEL is a priority across all disciplines. Teachers guide students to develop thoughtful values and emotional awareness without imposing them. While dedicating time to SEL means adjusting time for other subjects, research shows
Holistic education
It is a comprehensive teaching approach that engages the whole person, recognizing that students learn best when all aspects of their experience are addressed.
The curriculum we use here at Averroes is designed to nurture students' emotional, social, ethical, spiritual, and academic development, while fostering critical-thinking skills to solve real-world problems. Each class is designed to encourage students to reflect on their actions, consider their impact on both local and global communities, and learn from the world around them.
School Culture
At Averroes, our school culture is key to our program's success, shaped with intention and care. Rooted in the Sunna and Prophetic ideals, we translate our beliefs into actions that support growth.
We foster a community of learners—students, faculty, and parents—encouraging deep inquiry into the root causes of issues. Our staff enjoys continuous professional development through workshops, classroom visits, and peer observations. In the classroom, we prioritize depth, while our student culture emphasizes commitment and camaraderie. We maintain this supportive environment by:
