Program

MAYA follows and implements the State of Michigan's Curriculum and Standards framework (GLCEs) in language arts, math, science and social studies. Our students also take the MEAP and Terra Nova tests every year. We are seeking accreditation with NCA from AdvanED, an agency which ensures high standards in education.

Cultural Diversity

We believe that an appreciation and awareness of diverse cultures through the exploration of history, geography, art, and foreign language is very important for establishing a well-rounded, responsible Muslim student.

Qur’an

We believe that recital of, interpreting, and understanding the Qur’an is essential to develop a true Islamic identity.

Islamic Education

Students are taught Fiqh, laws of Islam; the history of prophets and Ahlul Bayt; akhlaq, or Islamic manners; and hadith, the Prophet’s oral traditions and deeds.   

Arabic Language

Being that Arabic is the language of the Holy Qur’an, teaching the students to speak, read, understand and write Arabic is fundamental.

Prayer Time

All students at MAYA have the benefit of performing group prayer (Salat Jama’ah) in the Masjid every day.  This instills in students and staff a rewarding experience spiritually, socially, and emotionally.

OUTREACH & PARTNERSHIPS

Parent Teacher Committee (PTC)

Our PTC engages in many volunteer activities such as the hot lunch program, bake sales, field trips, celebrations, etc. We also collaborate with many community organizations to foster positive partnerships.

Testimonials

"I think the MAYA vision is worth the time that was put into making it. I belive the Muslim American Youth Academy is doing exactly what is said in the vision. Especially where it says "the active involvement of dedicated teachers." I think that all the teachers are doing their jobs the way they should.  I hope they keep it up." ~ Tarek Tlais (8th grade)
