Since the start of the pandemic, Islamic schools all around the U.S. have been struggling to adjust to the new norm that is COVID-19. In June 2021, ISLA sent out a survey to Islamic schools in the U.S. to determine the impact of the pandemic. Based on the collected data, we analyzed the instructional and financial impacts, as well as any challenges schools faced during the year. Below, and accessible for download, is a report summarizing the results of the survey and analysis of the findings. Based on the data, several suggestions are presented in the report to assist Islamic schools in continuing to navigate the ongoing pandemic.

In late October-November 2020, ISLA administered a survey to understand the impact of COVID-19 on Islamic school enrollment.
It is our hope that the following report assists Islamic schools in making decisions for the future health of their schools, and that supporters of Islamic schools recognize the urgency of this moment in helping Islamic schools ride through this crisis without facing irreparable damage.
As we all navigate these unchartered territory, ISLA seeks to continue to move forward with its own mission of supporting Islamic schools with useful and timely research, professional development and collegial networking that uplifts and empowers each of us to come out of this crisis stronger.
