Al-Ihsan Academy is committed to offering a high academic program that includes the Michigan core curriculum in addition to Islamic studies , Quran , and a rigorous Arabic language program . The staff is an exceptional group of professional Muslim educators committed to helping each individual child reach his/her academic potential , develop a mature Islamic personality , and attain a healthy lifestyle .

Students begin each day in assembly where they are taught Quran , the morning duaa's and hadith , Students congregate daily for the Dhur prayer and weekly for the Jumaa prayer . Twelve noble characteristics of the Prophet (SAW) are taught and their application is reinforced through the compliment box as students "catch" a fellow classmate exhibiting a characteristic and write an anonymous compliment card for that action.

This activity is one example of our effort to build a strong moral foundation in our youth .

Al-Ihsan Academy was founded by the Board of Trustees of the Islamic Center of    Detroit in the summer of 2005 and established as a non-profit, full-time Islamic School.  The school currently serves students from pre-school through grade eight, and has plans, Inshallah, to grow and expand to eventually serve students to grade twelve. 

 We are located inside of the Islamic Center of Detroit. In addition to twelve  classrooms, we currently have offices, a cafeteria/gymnasium, an assembly hall, a  computer/media center, an outdoor playground, a Women’s Prayer Hall, a Men’s  Prayer Hall, and a latchkey room. We have plans to add a fully equipped gymnasium,  as well as, additional classrooms in the future.

Al-Ihsan Academy is dedicated to pursuing academic excellence and promotion of a strong Islamic identity through the internalization of the teachings of our Noble  Prophet and the application of Islamic principles in daily life.

 Belief Statement 

 It is our belief that a God-centered atmosphere and curriculum are absolutely  essential components of a well rounded education and should be delivered in a safe,  nurturing environment.  

Vision  

 Our vision is to mold our students into knowledgeable, spiritually centered, and  responsible world citizens for a global community. We envisage the transformation of  each child into a fully developed human being who is literate, not only intellectually,  but spiritually, morally, physically, interpersonally, culturally, and socially through a  holistic education.
