Assalamu-Alaikum ICN Al-Falah Academy Families!
🌟 Welcome back! We are excited to begin the second semester and have a meaningful, engaging program planned for our students. This semester will include enriching events such as the Islamic Studies Quiz Bowl, Ramadan Fest, Arabic Extravaganza, Eid treats, a Hajj simulation, and end-of-the-year awards, in sha’ Allah.
Please be sure to review the calendar at the bottom of this newsletter for important upcoming dates, including breaks during the last 10 days of Ramadan, Eid, and Spring Break.
🙏 We would also like to extend our heartfelt thanks to all MATW volunteers and the Connections team for their dedication and hard work in teaching our students about the richness and diversity of cultures within the ummah. We were blessed with an incredible turnout and honored to witness a community member embrace Islam during the event!
