Frequently Asked Questions

Everything parents ask us most — attendance, dress code, lunch, and more.

How do I register my children?

Registration is online through our Family Portal at sunweb.us (school code: salam). New families create an account; returning families reset their password first, since passwords weren't carried over from last year. See the Registration & Payment Guide (PDF) for step-by-step instructions.

What is the attendance policy?

Regular attendance is crucial for your child's progress. If your child is unable to attend a class, please inform the school in advance. Absences beyond a certain number may require a meeting with the administration.

What if I need to pick up my child early?

Please call the school office at least an hour before the desired pickup time if your child needs to be picked up early.

How do I report an absence?

If your child will be absent, please inform the school by calling the office and leaving a message with your child's name, the date of absence, and the reason for the absence.

How do I communicate with my child's teacher?

To ensure smooth and effective communication between parents and teachers, we will add you to your child's grade-level WhatsApp group.

Is there a dress code?

Students are encouraged to dress modestly and comfortably. Boys should wear long pants, and girls should wear loose-fitting, modest clothing. Girls are required to wear hijab during Dhuhr prayer.

What are the lunch and snack policies?

Students are encouraged to bring their own lunch and snacks from home. Alternatively, lunch can be purchased at the school; we offer pizza for $2, chips for $1, and juice for $1.

What are the drop-off and pick-up procedures?

Parents are responsible for timely drop-off and pick-up of their children. Please follow the designated routes and adhere to the school's guidelines to ensure everyone's safety.

What is the discipline policy?

We promote a positive and respectful learning environment. Disruptive behavior will be addressed according to our discipline policy, which may involve meetings with parents and staff.

How much is tuition, and is there a payment plan?

Tuition is $220 per semester or $440 for the full year. Yes, we offer a payment plan option for families who are unable to make a one-time payment — email weekendschool@salamcenter.org to arrange one.
