Celebrating Student Growth at Crescent Light Academy!

We are proud to share the results of our Spring NWEA MAP Assessment for our Kindergarten and 1st Grade students!

85% of students are reading at or above grade level
100% of students are performing at or above grade level in math

These results reflect the dedication of our students, the commitment of our teachers, and the partnership of our families. Most importantly, they demonstrate the impact of a strong foundation in literacy, mathematics, and character development.

At Crescent Light Academy, we are committed to nurturing developing minds through academic excellence and Islamic values while helping every child reach their full potential.

Alhamdulillah for this achievement, and we look forward to continuing our journey of growth and success together!

🌟🎓 Rising to the Stars 🎓🌟

Alhamdulillah, our Crescent Light Academy Graduation & Awards Ceremony was a beautiful celebration of our students’ journey, growth, and achievements throughout the year.

This year’s theme, “Rising to the Stars,” reflected the dreams, potential, and bright futures of our students as they continue to grow in knowledge, faith, confidence, and character. ✨

From heartfelt performances to special awards and graduation moments, every smile on stage reminded us that our children are capable of reaching incredible heights with the guidance of Allah (SWT), the support of their families, and a love for learning.

We are so proud of all our CLA students and thankful to our families, staff, and community for making this year so meaningful and successful.

May Allah (SWT) continue to guide our students to shine brightly and become leaders who benefit their communities and the Ummah. Ameen. 🤲
