Mission Statement

The mission of the Crescent Academy is to prepare the children of the Greater Binghamton Area to be tomorrow’s leaders. Our goal is to academically exceed the NYS Curriculum standards by providing a balanced educational system that integrates the principles of Islam. Students are encouraged to build confidence, leadership and a sense of self, as well as develop an appreciation of Islamic heritage in a multicultural environment that is supportive of each child’s uniqueness. The Crescent Academy cultivates future generations of students with a strong moral character and excellence in both Islamic and academic education.

Vision

The Crescent Academy is a premier institution that encourages student achievement in all fields. The vision of the Crescent Academy is to provide our students the opportunity to grow and develop to their potential by offering a comprehensive and balanced education. A balanced education is one that allows a child to grow academically, intellectually, physically, and spiritually. As such, the principles and practices of Islam are woven into the daily life of students, allowing them to build a moral and ethical compass that will guide them throughout their life in each of their endeavors. Our comprehensive education is one that exceeds the New York State Curriculum standards and offers Quran, Arabic and Islamic Studies.

Through inquiry-based learning initiatives and incorporated technology, we will motivate our students to reach their full potential and build self-confidence. TCA recognizes that staff development and community involvement are imperative for academic excellence. Our mission is to develop strong leaders for success in all phases of life.
