Recent Research:

3 Key Initiatives

  1. Islamic Database Project:  Directory of Islamic Schools + Profile of Islamic Schools Survey. The last such study was authored by Karen Keyworth (co-founder of ISLA) in 2011. The data from this project will help us better understand the challenges and areas of opportunity facing Islamic schools and will provide better data for better decision-making.
  2. Pulse Surveys. Surveys that are administered to Islamic school leaders or staff to understand urgent issues facing Islamic schools.
  3. Islamic School Alumni Study. Focus group research with Islamic school alumni that helps us understand the ways in which Islamic schools have positively impacted past students while identifying areas of improvement for future student generations
