In addition, we will be accommodating those students who wish to pray in a private space.
1st Lunch: Students may participate in prayer beginning at 1:20 PM. Students must have secured a special prayer pass from Mr. Ali or Ms. Wahida.
Prayer pass students should be back to class no later than 1:40 PM. First lunch students MUST show their teacher the pass to go to prayer.
