Early Childhood Education Program
Salam Academy is committed to the total development of each child placed under our care. Our preschool endeavors include meeting the unique academic, social, and spiritual needs of our youngest students. Children enrolled in our school learn in a safe and nurturing environment where Godly character is promoted and the wholeness of every child is addressed. As children absorb ideals early, we feel strongly that a values-driven environment is essential during the early education process and beyond.
We believe young children need and desire social interaction with peers and that they are ready to learn both academically and spiritually. Our curriculum prepares preschoolers for elementary classes by providing a fun format for learning numbers, letters, science, social studies, Arabic and Islam. We promote the love of learning and the love of Truth, laying a strong foundation in the heart and mind of a child.
It is also our desire to work closely with the school families in making the class-room experience a positive one for both children and parents!

- We have a promotion process that anticipates and mitigates implicit and explicit biases about people of color serving in leadership positions.
- We seek individuals from various race backgrounds for board and executive director/CEO positions within our organization.
- We have community representation at the board level, either on the board itself or through a community advisory board.
- We help senior leadership understand how to be inclusive leaders with learning approaches that emphasize reflection, iteration, and adaptability.
- We engage everyone, from the board to staff levels of the organization, in race equity work and ensure that individuals understand their roles in creating culture such that one’s race identity has no influence on how they fare within the organization.
