A Tiny Urban Learning Community Where Faith and Culture Intersect
Families seeking an extremely small, intimate elementary environment and who are comfortable exploring the school's unique faith-and-culture identity. Best for parents who value personal attention over breadth of programming and who want to understand firsthand how the Islamic-influenced name and Church of God affiliation translate into daily school life.
- Tiny scale — only 36 students total creates an intimate, family-like environment
- Very low student-teacher ratio (approximately 6:1)
- Islamic-influenced name in a Church of God-affiliated setting — a distinctive cultural blend
- Elementary-only program with pre-K through 5th grade
- Extremely small enrollment may mean limited extracurricular offerings
- The mismatch between the school's name (suggesting Islamic heritage) and listed religious affiliation (Church of God) warrants direct clarification
- As a private school, tuition applies — exact costs not available here
- Very homogeneous Asian demographic may or may not match your family's preferences for diversity
- Limited information available about specific curricula or programs
A micro-school with deep individual attention, where the name suggests Islamic cultural heritage but the stated affiliation is Church of God — worth clarifying with the school directly.
With only 36 students across all elementary grades, this is a close-knit community where every child is known. The student body is predominantly Asian (78%), with smaller populations of white and multiracial students.
Jamaica is a bustling, diverse corner of Queens with strong Caribbean and South Asian influences. The area around Van Wyck Expressway is urban and accessible, with good transit connections.
The Van Wyck Expressway location is drivable and accessible by car; walking in this part of Jamaica is doable but expect an urban environment with traffic.
