| About Our School: |
The
Muslims of Metro Atlanta have been dreaming of a full-time Islamic
school for a long time. The dream has now turned into a reality
as The City of Knowledge Islamic School began its 2006 school
year in August.
The City of Knowledge is committed to provide the caliber of education
that will match or exceed the academic excellence provided by
some of the finest private schools in the State of Georgia along
with augmenting essential moral behavior that is a key to achieving
human excellence. The City of Knowledge is supervised by a group
of Muslims who are serving as educators in the State of Georgia
and include professors from Emory University and Georgia Tech;
thus providing additional assurance that our children will be
in good hands.
