TEACHERS CHOICE

As a parent myself, I know we all want the best for our children. I have been teaching 1st grade in public school for more than ten years and when I heard about the opening of Mercy School I could not praise Allah enough for this blessing.

I quit teaching in the public school and have been at Mercy School since its inaugural year in 1999. There is no amount of money that could be offered to me where I would go back to teaching Public School! Why? Because Allah has answered a prayer Ive prayed for many years and that is to have an Islamic School.

There are many problems that face a child just by being in a public school setting: violence, weapons, sexual activity, etc. Allahu Akbar! You will not find any of these things at Mercy School. Your child will leave you daily coming to a safe, Islamic environment, where he/she can concentrate on his/her studies. And you will be able to leave your child with peace of mind. We have the best curriculum and environment. The BEST CHOICE for your child is MERCY SCHOOL! (Mrs. Miniimah Muhammad)
