About the Academy
Nurturing faith, knowledge, and character in Youngstown, Ohio since 2003.
A community rooted in faith and learning
The Islamic Academy of Youngstown was founded in 2003 by families who wanted an education that develops the whole child — strong in academics, grounded in Islamic values, and confident in character.
For nearly three decades, we have served students from kindergarten through grade 8 with small classes, dedicated teachers, and a safe, welcoming campus. Today, our graduates carry the same foundation of faith and knowledge into high school and beyond.
