I really appreciated environment that was fostered and how supportive the kids and teachers were with each other. Knowing that I didn’t have to worry about what my son was going to be exposed to while at the same time a strong Islamic influence was helping to shape his young character.

I highly recommend Manarah Islamic Academy. The school provides a safe and healthy learning environment and all of the teachers and staff are dedicated to providing a nurturing learning experience for their students. The administration are constantly looking for ways to improve the school and the teachers put their heart and soul into their work and it’s reflected in the love that my children have for each one of their teachers.

As a parent of the Manarah community, I am very pleased with the education my children have received. The personal care and warmth given by Manarah’s staff is incomparable; I know they care about each student as “family.” The instruction in all academic subjects is excellent. It is impossible to convey the wonderful moment when your child begins reading a children’s book or a passage from the Holy Book aloud, begins understanding new math concepts, recounting an exciting Science or Social Studies project, or reciting a Surah from memory; Manarah’s teachers have instilled these skills and knowledge. The extended parent community also devotes much time and energy to create a rich learning environment for the school. Class time is balanced with field trips, tournaments, and special activities. Every person at Manarah goes out of their way to enrich each class with creativity, fun, and value

As Salamu ‘Alaykum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuh Alhamdulillah, Manarah is an excellent private school here in the LeHigh Valley. My three children have been attending for the past several years. I can honestly say how much islamic growth and academic growth I have seen in them. The teachers and the entire staff are like a family. I don’t consider Manarah just any old private school. It is a second home for my children and I. We value and appreciate all the hard work and effort the teachers and staff have made to nurture our children both on a spiritual and intellectual level. The school is a community of wonderful people that really care for your child’s well-being. I am confident that my children have been taught more than just academic or religious studies. The love of Islam and good manners have been instilled in them that will help carry them for many more years to come. Manarah is like an extended family to us. We pray that Allah SWT blesses Manarah for many years to come and bless it to grow into a middle and high school so that our children continue attending for many more years. Public school is not an option for us. May Allah SWT also bless the excellent staff and teachers who help our children to become the bright guiding light for our future. Ameen. Thank You

My son started Pre-K this year at Manarah Islamic Academy. Alhamdulillah, it has been an incredible journey so far! The school is very well organized mashaAllah and provides a great balance between Islamic and academic education for their students. My son absolutely loves his teacher who has made it a joy for him to learn. We are thankful to the school and all who are involved in providing this opportunity for us. I look forward to seeing my son grow and shine in Manarah inshaAllah!
