Pearls Academy

"Horrible just horrible I am Muslim but i would never send my kids there . the teachers are unprofessional and threaten a teacher to leave because of her kindness. And teacher talk bad about kids and this is not how muslims should be like."

"Academic coordinator is unprofessional, lacks relevant education and writing skills."

"This is an amazing Fulltime Islamic school! The staff and teachers are highly qualified and everyone sincerely cares. Sh Hatim is a great Quran/Hifz instructor. He and others teach the children proper pronunciation and tajweed and they teach it in a way that facilitates a love for the book of Allah swt. The academics are advanced compared to va public school standards. Classes are smaller Providing more one on one instruction and time with the children. Currently they are working on accreditation and the best of all my children love this school!"

"Small, intimate class sizes where teachers really care about academic excellence and spiritual well being of the children."

"Overall absolutely outstanding school. I am giving Pearls Academy a 5-star rating. The teachers teach their material well and make sure the students thoroughly understand each concept, preparing them for the coming grades. Every teacher tries their best the connect with the students and to help every student to learn in their own way. In Pearls Academy, everyone is accepted. There is an environment of kindness and compassion, not making crude or harsh remarks on others. There is a weekly theme that teaches good ways to behave like the Prophet Mohammed ﷺ. However, I strongly believe that the school should provide the students with a little bit more break time. Also, there should be a full-size basketball court with actual hoops and some open turf area. An unproportional amount of the huge outside area has a lot of structures that no one uses because the school used to be a daycare. Perhaps the school should leave a couple of outside play areas for the younger students to play on but renovate the rest so that we have a full-court basketball court. Also, some open turf area could be used for so many different things such as outdoor Salah, soccer, lacrosse, football, and many more. Because a turf area is so versatile, it would be beneficial for the school to have it. I would like to end by saying that as a student, I like the candy rewards some of the teachers give for good work. I will always remember this school for the things that I have learned but also for the wonderful people I have met and been lucky enough to have spent time with. If this school is still around and I still live in the area, I would most definitely send my sons to this school. Thank you to my wonderfully dedicated teachers who always have my best interests at heart. Adam out."
