Category V schools must keep the curriculum on file and make it available for inspection if requested. Al-Farooq Elite Academy plans to keep a clear scope and sequence, curriculum map, assessments, and student progress records from the beginning.

Growth Plan & School Calendar

Al-Farooq Elite Academy is being built with a long-term vision. We plan to grow carefully and responsibly while maintaining quality, small class sizes, strong academics, and Islamic identity.

2026–2027: Opening Year

Opening with Kindergarten and 1st Grade, with only 10 students per class.

2027–2028: Next Step

Our plan is to add at least one additional grade level. If staffing, enrollment, facility readiness, and approvals allow, we will strive to expand toward a full elementary program as early as the next school year.

2028–2029 and Beyond

We plan to continue adding grade levels each year, building a strong elementary school foundation and expanding with excellence rather than rushing without quality.

Growing With Excellence

Our goal is not only to open a school, but to build a trusted Islamic academy known for academic strength, faith, character, and leadership.
