Inspired by the teachings of Imam Al-Ghazali, our curriculum emphasizes holistic development encompassing intellect, spirituality, character, and morality. Through the Al-Ghazali curriculum, children explore Islamic ethics, virtues, and teachings that guide them toward leading fulfilling and righteous lives.
We provide hands-on, experiential learning opportunities for children to engage with Islamic concepts and teachings. Through interactive activities, stories from the Quran and Hadith, and exploration of Islamic traditions, children develop a deeper understanding and appreciation of their faith.
We encourage children to inquire, question, and explore the world around them through the lens of Islamic ethics and morality. Guided by the principles of curiosity, critical thinking, and reflection, children embark on a journey of discovery that deepens their understanding of Allah’s creation and their role as stewards of the Earth.
Our educators are committed to ongoing professional development guided by Islamic ethics and principles. They engage in continuous learning, self-reflection, and collaboration to deepen their understanding of Islam and enhance their teaching practice, embodying the values of lifelong learning and growth advocated by Islam.
Our leave of absence policy covers situations where families need to take extended leaves. Please refer to our Leave of Absence Policy for detailed information. In summary, when a leave of absence is taken for two weeks or more, tuition is reduced to 50%, provided that the school is notified in advance with a minimum of two weeks' notice or one month's notice. Failure to provide adequate notice may result in full tuition for the subsequent month.
Yes, the minimum enrollment requirement is three days for part-time enrollment. Our part-time options are available for either nine to one or nine to three, with a minimum of three days per week considered part-time enrollment.
Currently, we do not offer hot meals. However, we provide morning snacks. Parents are encouraged to pack lunch for their children, especially if they have dietary preferences or restrictions. While we have a menu for morning snacks, we do not offer substitutions.
At Creative Hearts, we approach challenging behavior with love, compassion, and understanding. We do not believe in punishment or timeouts. Instead, children are redirected and offered a "thinking spot" within the classroom where they can calm themselves with quiet activities. If a pattern of behavior persists, parents are notified, and a meeting is arranged. Bullying is taken seriously, and our teachers are trained to address it with kindness and understanding, involving parents as necessary. We prioritize problem-solving and communication over punitive measures.
