The mission of Um Al-Qura Islamic School is to provide “learning environments that are safe, nurturing, positive, and respectful.” Such a learning environment is peaceful and welcoming for all. We must be free of negative factors such as abuse, bullying, discrimination, intimidation, hateful words and deeds, and physical violence in any form. We must also clearly demonstrate respect for human rights and social justice and promote the values needed to develop responsible members of a democratic society.
