Each year, seventh-graders at Crescent Academy International gain spiritual and academic inspiration from past Muslim achievements through a transdisciplinary Golden Age project.
When preschool students at Crescent Academy International witness the wonder of beautiful winged creatures emerging from cocoons each spring, more than the butterflies undergo a metamorphosis. The students themselves are transformed, learning a valuable life lesson about the importance of protecting Allah’s creatures until they are strong enough to fly on their own.
Eighth graders at Crescent Academy International demonstrated their prowess in science and engineering – as well as their ability to adapt to virtual competition – in the recent Science and Engineering Fair of Metro Detroit (SEFMD).
Crescent Academy International earns highest possible environmental stewardship designation as part of a southeast Michigan “Green Schools” initiative.
Crescent students qualify for Academic Games state tournament, a competition in which players win by out-thinking each other and devising challenging solutions in mathematics, language arts and social studies.
Since 2001, Crescent preschoolers have participated in a Trike-A-Thon fundraiser for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, generating an estimated $75,000 in donations.
