Announcement from Parkland MSA
 
Parkland MSA invites students to use the athletic room during any of their lunch periods in order to pray. This room is located right next to the school store. If students would like to have a khutbah, please talk to Mrs. Azim in order to organize who will be presenting which week (these will be a 5 minute maximum khutbah). If students have lunch fourth period, they may ask Mrs. Azim (in room D209) to sign a pass during a study hall. Students must be aware that teachers will be notified that these passes will be valid for a maximum of 15 minutes so that students do not remain in the cafeteria.
  
Sponsor a Student of Knowledge in Our School

The Manarah foundation established a Financial Aid program to support eligible families in need to allow them send their children to our schools. Many families have benefited from this program over the year. Thanks to your generous donations in support of the program. 
 
Due to increased number of applicants to the program, we have unfortunately ran out of funds and are in need of sponsors to help us fund the program so that we can process  many applications that are pending approval due to lack of  funds. Your donation will allow these children the opportunity to attend our schools and build the islamic foundation they need to develop themselves. We are in the first ten (10) days of Dhul Hijjah, a great opportunity to multiply your reward. Please be generous and donate to the financial aid program today. 
 
This is a great opportunity for Sadaqah Jariya.
