Why online works in Montgomery County
Montgomery County is big: 1,062,061 people at the 2020 census, spread from Clarksburg in the north to Silver Spring and Bethesda on the DC line. In 2023 it was rated the most religiously diverse county in the United States, and its masjids are spread just as widely.
Those masjids run excellent weekend schools, after-school programs and even full-time Islamic schools. What they can't do is come to you. For a child who needs to read aloud to a teacher more than once a week, one-on-one classes at home fill the gap between Sundays.
We're an independent online school. We list the local masjids on every town page so new families can find them, and our classes are designed to sit alongside them.
Ramadan, Eid and the school calendar
The 2026-27 MCPS calendar has no school for students on Tuesday, March 9, 2027 and Monday, May 17, 2027, the expected dates of Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha. The calendar lists them as non-instructional days rather than naming the holidays, and May 17 is also held as a possible snow make-up day.
Ramadan 2027 is expected to begin around February 8, depending on the moon. If fasting changes your family's evenings, ask your teacher about moving your class times; with 24 hours' notice, any class can be made up.
Questions
Montgomery County parents ask
Do you teach in person anywhere in Montgomery County?
No. Every class is live online, which is how we can teach families anywhere from Clarksburg to Silver Spring with the same teachers and the same price.
Which parts of Montgomery County do you serve?
All of it. The town pages above cover the places families ask about most, but any address in the county, or anywhere in Maryland, works.
Will classes clash with MCPS school hours?
No. Elementary schools finish at 3:25 or 3:50 depending on the school, middle schools at 3:00 and high schools at 2:30 (2025-26 bell times). Classes are set after school, Monday to Friday.
What happens on Eid?
Let your teacher know ahead of time and the class is made up on another day, just like any class you need to miss with 24 hours' notice.
Can my child do this and a masjid weekend school?
Yes. Weekend schools usually meet once a week; our short weekday classes keep the reading going in between.
