Excellence in Academics...

The Elementary level consists of an
established curriculum that correlates and
exceeds the objectives set by the State of Illinois, Board of Education.
The Middle School and High School program
adapts to the academic needs of individual students. By providing regular,
honors, and AP (advanced college placement) courses to students also find
themselves learning everything from web designing to journalism; sociology to
graphic art and design. Universal’s Arabic department created their own
curriculum, specific to the needs of Arabic as a second language for Arabic
speaking as well as non-Arabic speaking students. In order to excel in Quran,
students are placed in one of the four
levels, based upon individual ability.
Universal
School offers a wide variety of computer courses from kindergarten to twelfth
grade. Elementary focus on computer navigation and keyboarding. Middle school

school learn to build websites and programming. They are exposed to HTML,
JavaScript and Visual Basic with the plan of introducing advanced placement
computer courses.
Excellence in Islamic Education...
Our students are taught from a very young age
the basic fundamentals of Islam. All core subjects are taught in relation
to Islamic principles. In addition, students are required to have an Islamic
studies class as early as pre-kindergarten.
By praying Thuhr daily and attending
Friday khutbas, our students are
implementing concepts taught in the
classroom. Our value of the month allows the students not only to practice
Islamic Tarbiyah but to implement
it throughout their lives.
Excellence in Extra Curricular Activities...
We strive to graduate well-rounded
individuals, thus providing a variety of extra curricular activities to our
polished academic program. The Iman Club encourages students to become better
and more productive Muslims by organizing fundraising programs to benefit
Muslims globally. The student council unifies the student body by closely
working with the administration to foster high morale and positive self-esteem.
Out competitive boys basketball team, part of the IHSA, provides a structured
avenue for academically capable students. Membership in the N.H.S. (National
Honor Society) is both an honor and a responsibility. Students selected for
membership are expected to continue to demonstrate the qualities of scholarship,
service, leadership, and character.
