Assalamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh,
Welcome to NorthWest Islamic School (NWIS) – a place where faith meets learning, where young minds are nurtured with the beauty of the Quran, and where a vibrant community comes together every Saturday to invest in what matters most: our children’s future.
Since 2001, NWIS has been a trusted home for families seeking a rich Islamic education that complements their childrens weekday schooling. What began as a dream shared by two devoted educators with just five students has blossomed into a thriving community institution, Alhamdulillah.
We invite you to join our family.

Mission, Faith & Community Impact
The Noah Foundation for Learning is dedicated to ensuring that every Muslim child has access to meaningful, highquality Islamic education. Rooted in the belief that faith, heritage, and language are essential to a child’s identity, the Foundation works to make Islamic learning
accessible, affordable, and grounded in community.
Our mission is inspired by the Qur’anic verse that commands us to seek knowledge as a pathway to spiritual growth. Allah ﷻ says:
“My Lord, increase me in knowledge.”
(Surah Taha 20:114)
Who We Are
At NWIS, we believe every child is a trust (amanah) from Allah ﷻ. Our four foundational pillars guide
everything we do:
Quranic Excellence
build a lifelong, loving relationship
with the Book of Allah. We teach not just recitation, but understanding and application.
Character Building
Community & Belonging
Holistic Growth

Student Testimonial
I learned to love the Quran at NWIS. The teachers didn't just teach us to read — they helped us understand and feel the words of Allah.

As a volunteer, I've seen firsthand the impact this school has on families. NWIS truly builds bridges and
builds character.
