The students pray Zuhr together everyday, and on Fridays, they have a Khateeb (imam) preach to them, after which they pray Jumu'ah.

Originally, El-Dessouky said, the school planned to use the Teaneck campus for pre-kindergarten through first grade students, but after the school held an open house for parents and prospective students earlier this month, the board decided to expand its offerings up to third grade."
