History
Ilm Academy started as a collaborative brainchild of local scholars, a veteran educator, and Muslim parents in Irvington District, Fremont, who felt the pressing need for a full service Islamic school in the area. Alhamdullilah, since that moment, there has been no looking back. Ilm Academy announced 2010-11 as its first academic school year.
Beginning as K-2, an initial enrollment of seventeen children, and a staff of three teachers, the school has come a long way.

Ilm Academy’s vision is to establish and maintain a learning community that, at the very core, provides students with opportunities to discover their potential, their values, their strengths to make informed decisions grounded in their deen and make a difference in their communities.
