FAQs-What happens if someone tests positive for COVID-19 within the school?

— We will adhere to the guidelines disseminated by the CDC and New Jersey Department of Education.

FAQs- Why is the day Ending at 1pm?

— We are shortening the day to end at 1pm for several reasons.

— Students will be cooped up in their classrooms each day. Sitting in the same 6ft square for almost 8 hours a day is not good for their health. — We have to avoid the necessity to make wudu in the bathrooms due to limited space in our facility. — We need enough time to properly disinfect the entire school daily. — We need to offer support for our online learners.

FAQs- If a student is registered for in-school learning, can they swap to remote learning during the year or vice versa?

— Yes you can switch from in school learning to permanently remote learning. — Yes you can switch from remote learning to in-school learning if there is a space in the classroom. — Yes you can switch from remote learning to hybrid learning if there is a space in the classroom. — Safety is our priority. We will be strictly adhering to class size limitations.

FAQs- Will uniform be required for Remote Learners?

— On-site students will be required to wear the appropriate uniform. — Remote learners will be required to wear Islamically-appropriate clothing in accordance to our uniform guidelines.

YOUR NEXT STEPS

— The Office will be sending out an emailed survey to determine if your family will be participate in remote, in-school, or hybrid learning. — We highly recommend that decisions are made prior to August 17, 2020 so that we can properly prepare for the Fall.
