EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS S ince years ago the ICRM is providing an educational services for the Islamic community in Rolla. Among these educational services is the Qur’anic School for children. The first class was held in 2010 when Mr. Abdussalam Mohamed, a former petroleum engineering graduate student, set in a corner of the old Masjid teaching Quran for a few number of kids. The Qur’anic School’s goal is to teach the Muslim children how to recite Quran as well as memorize some surah’s through which children could learn some of the teachings of Islam such as prayers. The timing for the Qur’anic School is Friday which children come after school as well as their volunteer teachers to start classes which is about two hours. During the study, the students get to know each other and in the time of prayer, kids start lining up in a straight lines for prayer then afterwards snacks. These activities is to strengthen the ties between the people of the Muslim community in Rolla. In Ramadan, qur’anic school supervisors hold a competition for all students to evaluate the students’ level and the winners get awards. ALFAROUK ELEMENTARY SCHOOL (AES); The idea of the Arabic school in Rolla (MO) started in 2009. Later, in one of the preliminary meetings for the Libyan Student Association (LSA), Dr. Mahmoud El Sharafi shared an idea of establishing an Arabic school providing a complete Arabic education. The main idea related to Arabic school is to keep the children in touch with their mother language. Therefore, those children who is returning back to their countries will not find a big gap between them and their fellows, especially in Arabic Language. The school opened its doors with only two grades (first grade, and second grade) under a supervision of four full time female volunteers. In 2012 the school was named AL- Farouk Elementary School and was completely managed by student volunteers who continued to provide a complete Arabic education in all subjects for all grades. The total enrollment in this year 2014-2015 is about 45 students, and about 16 student volunteered to teach in these secessions on Sundays. Women Quran class has been started on 2012 when the former ICRM Da’wah Coordinator, Musa Albousifi, insisted to find a special educational program and social activity organized by women at the old building. He has done a nice job for arrangement with Quranic teacher, and with encouraging several people to bring their families to attend the classes. The class started with a few participants at the beginning.
