Weekend School

Assalamu Alaikum Warhmatulhi Wabarakatu and welcome to the EMAS (Darul-Hijrah Islamic School) Weekend learning.

The teachers and the administrative staff of Darul-Hijrah Islamic School are committed to maximizing your child’s potential. We all know that children learn more and have better lives when students, teachers, and parents work collaboratively. The school management, staff, and parents must work together and support each other’s efforts. In addition, we request all parents to play an active role at home during the weekdays so that we can together achieve our goals.
