West Island Sunday School

Welcome to the Hilm West Island Islamic Sunday School. Alhumdullillah, our community, and student body, continues to grow. This year, we are pleased to announce improvements to our Islamic curriculum for both students and parents. As a staff, we are committed to creating a student-oriented program that promotes Islamic education through a rigorous interdisciplinary curriculum.

We have listened to your feedback and made several changes this year. In addition to adding more classes and teachers, we implemented changes to improve communication and expand our curriculum.

As usual, please do not hesitate to speak to any member of the Hilm Sunday School Staff to bring forward ideas, questions, or concerns.
