Dear Parents, Staff, Students & Community-Members: Assalamu alaikum We are half-way through the summer, and I hope everyone is enjoying the break! We have been hard at work interviewing teachers, setting schedules, choosing textbooks and meeting new families who will be registering their students at AYA. We welcome all of them and hope that they will enjoy being at AYA and benefit from all AYA has to offer. We would also like to welcome the following new members of AYA’s winning administrative team:
Sr. Hayat Ileiwat – Director of Elementary Sr. Maha Yousef – Director of Early Childhood Imam Raed Alrousan - Our Newly-Elected Board Member
A full listing of teachers – new and returning – will be posted on the web-site soon, insha’Allah: www.ayatampa.com Subhan’Allah, we will be in school less than five (5) days before the start of Ramadan, and we are already busy planning our Ramadan activities. May it be a month full of blessings for us all. Insha’Allah, each of us will grow spiritually during Ramadan and increase our worship, our good deeds and our sadaqaat. Please feel free to contact me at any time with suggestions and/or questions: [email protected]. We look forward to seeing everyone soon! Wa jazakumullahu khairan,
Sr. Magda Elkadi Saleh
