Richmond, Canada Az-Zahraa Islamic Academy Full time

The Az-Zahraa Islamic Academy (AZIA) is an independent elementary and middle school that is inspired by the doctrines and values of the Islamic faith and offers a broad and balanced program that is in line with BC’s redesigned curriculum. It strives to nourish spiritual and academic excellence in its students. AZIA is currently ranked in the top 10% of schools in B.C. The school strongly values its partnership with parents and the wider community.

AZIA is a Group 1 classification of independent schools under the BC Ministry of Education guidelines. The school opened its doors for the first time in September 2003 and currently offers Junior Kindergarten to Grade 9 education. The school is located at the Az-Zahraa Islamic Center in Richmond BC, which includes a beautiful mosque, a large library, playgrounds, and a full-size gymnasium. AZIA is a destination school with students from Richmond, New Westminster, Burnaby, Vancouver, North Vancouver, Surrey, and the Tri cities.

AZIA aims to provide our growing community of >250 students with (i) a solid foundation of Islamic values, nurturing and strengthening the faith of our youngsters in thought and in practice, (ii) an outstanding educational experience, and (iii) the skills to confidently and effectively interact in society.

With a commitment to nurture strong individuals and members of society, AZIA aims to instill Islamic wisdom, thinking and practices within its students, manifested in meaningful pursuit of spiritual, intellectual, artistic, technological, athletic and service endeavours. AZIA ensures that each student feels known and is challenged. The focus is on empowering students to become courageous, compassionate, powerful thinkers and leaders, and aware of the impact they can have on their community and beyond. There is an atmosphere of respect, caring and support to encourage independence, resiliency, mindfulness and innovative thinking for all ages.

Our strong staff team is made up of 40 enthusiastic, dedicated and deeply committed members who bring tremendous strength to the school. They are a highly qualified group of professional educators who are committed to providing an exceptional educational experience for the students. They also work hard to ensure that the students’ daily experience is a quality one. Staff are encouraged to be leaders in their areas of expertise, supporting one another in their own commitment to excellence in their craft. Over the last few years, though still developing its programs, AZIA has considerable success and growth. We aim for curricular and co-curricular programs being driven by a talented staff group. The tight-knit administrative team is a professional and capable group of individuals who work alongside teaching staff to help create the necessary environment that will ensure the whole staff team is working toward achieving the mission and vision of the organization.

AZIA is a community-based school and envisions the education of children in collaboration and partnership with the greater community. A strong robust educational program will assist in preparing a strong Muslim community; similarly, a supportive community, which is invested in the religious and educational needs of its members, will be able to enhance the quality of the school. It is for this reason that the school needs to work to ensure a strong positive relationship with both the Az-Zahraa community as well as other Muslim communities that the families are a part of. Strong collaborative efforts on the basis of faith will bring about greater blessings for all parties and help us realize holistic nurturing and education of our children. In addition, AZIA has great ties with the outer communities and neighboring schools by having joint activities, programs and competitions regularly.

The school is anchored by a dedicated Board, parent volunteers who are deeply committed, and loyal community members who participate in a range of efforts. Parent involvement is a cornerstone of the school’s success as involved parents help to develop inspired students.

Over the past 20 years, the aim of Az-Zahraa Islamic Academy’s staff, board, parents, students and community has been to create an excellent educational institution with its own unique culture. Over the coming years, the school has an exciting mission to achieve AZIA’s vision of the school: _To be recognized as a top-tier school that provides a solid foundation of Islamic values, an outstanding educational experience, and the skills to confidently and effectively interact in society_. Leading the school with this vision will be the key focus of the new principal. The new principal will be fully supported and charged with leading the school through the next phase of its evolution.
