What the Students Learn At UMA Academy

WELCOME
Dear Parents/Guardians of UMA Academy,
Assalamu Alaikum Warahmatullah Wabarakatuh
Welcome to UMA Academy  Family for the year 2017. I am confident that you all had an enjoyable summer in the spirit of the blessed Month of Ramadan and are excited to face this New Year. Since UMA's mission statement is “Quality Education and Personal Excellence” we strive daily to reflect on it. While focusing on how the Academy  teaches students the basic principles of Islam to strengthen their faith and identity.
In our efforts to continue maintaining high standards of excellence, we rely on the support of parents/guardians and students. This requires giving a higher priority to the concept of accountability. We all must be held accountable for the important role we play in educating the next generation. UMA  is a wonderful Academy  where all staff members understand the sacrifice they must make to help students succeed. I believe that all students, parents, teachers, administrators, board members and the community at large must join in assuming responsibility for students' success. We are working in the Academy to ensure that our expectations for learning and behavior are consistent. The teachers in each of the  levels work closely together to ensure consistency in expectations. Here at UMA Academy, we focus on using positive and friendly language such as saying, “Assalamu Alaikum, Jazakallahu Khair, Masha-Allah, Please, Thank you, Work Hard, Try Your Best and Safety First.” for motivating our learning and reminding students of our expectations. The children know that every adult in the school is responsible for every child and that we all need to treat one another with dignity and respect. All of our efforts will lead to learning opportunities that are current, challenging, relevant, and meaningful for our children.
We  encourage you to become involved in our Parent  Committee Members and Positive relationship-building with our students, families, community, and teachers.We continue promoting high expectations,  in  Qur’an reading, Islamic Studies and Arabic Language.
We  Promote, model, and encourage good character, leadership, problem-solving abilities, mutual respect,  social responsibility and good work habits .
