If it weren't for ILC+, these students would not be able to receive a structured Islamic education, focused on practical and daily aspects of life. The school caters to students attending public school. Families pay a minimal cost to cover the cost of books and admin expenses.

 

ILC+ weekend school is not your typical Islamic weekend school. ILC+ focuses on teaching Islam in a practical manner. With a structured and developed curriculum to teach how to implement Islam in daily life, ILC+ utilizes hands-on activities and translating Islamic learning’s into real-life examples and actual practices. Staff members are educated in religious and secular studies and share the passion for giving back to the community.

 

As students get older, the focus turns to leadership training. Older students in level 3 and 4 are taught how to be leaders and work in teams, both as leaders and members, so they may learn and practice how to serve the community and effectively interact with their surroundings including but not limited to their family, friends, neighbors, peers, and extended community. Along with adult educators, this programs also has several youth volunteers participating both as administrative and education assistants.
