Granada 25th Anniversary Dinner & Video

Assalam Alaikum dear GIS parents,

Masha Allah, Granada Islamic School had a wonderful 25th Anniversary Event at the Marriott Hotel on February 3.  It was heartwarming to see how many parent and community members came to celebrate this milestone with us.  And we had the pleasure of seeing many of our former students at the alumni gathering prior to the main event. 

Through the generosity of the community, we received over $84,000 in donations that night alone.  This will help us fulfill our expansion, academic and physical education goals.  If you were unable to attend, you may still donate.

Please check Granada 25th Anniversary Video, which tell the story of our school over the past 25 years from the perspective of founders, board members, parents, teachers, alumni, students, and administrators. This video was the production of Br. Halim Qayum from Verus Productions under the direction of Sr. Tsunnum Malik and Sr. Michelle Lee. The A/V equipments were directed by Br. Zabed Ahammad and Br. Nasim Islam. May Allah reward them all for their hard work.
 
We would also like to thank our generous sponsors for enabling us to afford such a special event:

Hidaya Foundation

And, of course, we can’t forget all the volunteers and staff whose contribution made this event possible.  We thank them all for their tireless effort in making this celebration such a memorable one.

Sincerely,

Nihad Mourad
Principal
