Day schools, weekend madrasas & hifz programs
An Islamic school website is doing something harder than a typical private school site. It has to convince a family to pay tuition when the charter school two miles away is free, serves halal lunch, and gives students a place to pray. So it cannot only say that we teach Quran and academics. It has to show what the day actually looks like, what the Islamic studies scope is grade by grade, who teaches it, what tuition costs, and what happens for a family that cannot pay all of it.
Three Islamic education sites delivered: Iqra School, a PreK-4 private Islamic school in Minnesota; Darul Uloom New York; and Dar Al Qalam Center in Minneapolis.
The second thing that makes these sites different is who keeps them running. In the Islamic schools we have worked with, the site belongs to one office administrator who also answers the phone and chases immunization records, or to a board member doing it on weeknights. The domain is often still in a former volunteer's personal account, and nobody current has the login. We build for that reality: pages the office can change from a phone the night Eid is announced, and credentials that belong to the school rather than to whoever set it up.
Worth knowing
Photography policy is usually the first conversation: many families are comfortable with younger children being photographed and not older girls, and the site structure has to work when a program page has no faces in it at all. Second is the dual calendar — Hijri dates alongside Gregorian for Ramadan, Eid and the academic year. Third is tuition and scholarship presentation, where zakat-eligible funds need to be labelled distinctly from general fundraising so donors know what they are giving to. None of this is exotic, but a template built for a suburban district school handles none of it.
Published ranges, not a call-for-pricing page. These are what projects in this sector actually land at with us. Your number depends on page count, functionality, and how much content support you need.
Weekend school or small day school
Core pages, one calendar, an inquiry form, tuition and registration. Right for a weekend madrasa or a single-campus school under about 150 students where the office does the updating.
$3,500 to $7,000
Full dual-curriculum school site
Admissions funnel, per-grade curriculum pages, hifz tracks, tuition and financial aid, family resource hub, announcements, and portal links. This is where most full-time Islamic schools land.
$7,000 to $18,000
Ongoing care
Someone to post the Eid closure the night it is announced, keep the calendar honest through the school year, plus backups, updates, and security. Optional, month to month.
$100 to $350 / month

Proof
Real projects, real organizations, live sites you can go and look at.
Iqra School is a PreK–4 private Islamic school committed to helping students realize their utmost potential. Iqra sets a benchmark for excellence through a comprehensive, core-knowledge curriculum, and its students are expected to exceed the State of Minnesota's academic standards.
Darul Uloom New York, founded in 1997, set out to create an institution where children are educated in a humble Islamic environment with traditional Islamic values, coupled with a firm background in secular education, to produce the Muslim scholars of the future.
Dar Al Qalam Center was established in 2012 by a group of dedicated teachers and community members who saw the need for a center that serves as a religious and educational hub for the communities of Minneapolis.

FAQ
Because that comparison happens on your website, not on a tour. A family weighing free public school against a few thousand dollars a year is looking for evidence: the Islamic studies scope, who teaches Quran, class sizes, what happens at dhuhr, whether aid exists. If the page does not answer those, most families assume the answer is unimpressive and never call. Enrollment marketing gets no cheaper than this.
Yes, and we design for it from the start rather than discovering it at photo selection. Many schools we work with limit images of older students, and consent varies family to family. We build layouts that carry weight through typography, color, classroom detail, work on the wall, and quoted words from teachers and parents. If you can supply even a small set of approved images, we will place them where they do the most work.
Usually as a clean, obvious link rather than a rebuild. If you run FACTS/RenWeb, Gradelink, Sycamore, Jupiter Ed, or Brightwheel for PreK, families need one labeled button that lands them in the right portal, and the school needs to stop paying for two systems that do the same job. We will also tell you if a tool you are paying for is redundant with what the site can do.
We build the structure for it instead of bolting on a translation widget, which mangles Arabic script and religious vocabulary. In practice most schools translate a fixed set of pages — admissions, tuition, the handbook summary, the calendar — and leave news in English. Arabic gets real right-to-left layout. We also make sure a page pasted into a WhatsApp group shows a readable preview, since that is how most of your links travel.
Say it plainly, either way. Accreditation is one of the first questions in a parents' WhatsApp thread, and silence reads as no. If you are accredited or a candidate — MNSAA, Cognia, NCPSA, CISNA — name the body and the status. If you are not pursuing it, say what you offer instead: standardized results, where graduates go, teacher licensure. An honest answer converts better than an absent one.
