The Muslim Center of Greater Princeton, formerly known as the Institute of Islamic Studies, was established more than 15 years ago in a small office building in West Windsor, NJ.  As the founding members realized their community was growing and many of their own children needed to have a place for formal education, MCGP School was formed.  

​

Over the years the school has expanded and matured and now we offer Saturday classes for students in KG - 9.  Our community has grown from having only 20 children to now over 300+!  The focus of the school is provide our youth a place to learn, grow, embrace their faith and help them identify as Muslims in today's environment. Every year we try to enhance our curriculum, bring in more experienced staff members, hire experienced teachers, conduct training and development sessions for our teachers and try and innovate the way we teach.  

 

We aim to provide a unique, fun and challenging learning experience that cover various aspects of the Islamic faith covered primarily across two major subjects - Islamic Studies & Quran Studies.  

​

Your children are only with us a few hours in the week so we encourage parents to get involved, volunteer and spend extra time with their children at home as well to help us reinforce what is being taught in MCGP School.  Insha Allah with our combined efforts we can help develop the leaders of tomorrow from within our own community.
