our story
Darul Arqam Southwest (DASW) began operating as a full-time school in 1994. In the early 1990's the school was operating in two small classrooms in Masjid Attaqwa. The three member faculty at the time taught 25 students from Pre-Kindergarten (age 3) to 3rd grade. Today by the grace of God and the commitment and generosity of our community, the school has evolved into a full time Pre-K to 8th grade educational institute with a faculty of over 25 teachers and staff and a student body over 210 students in two connected buildings. The school still utilizes two trailers to accommodate the large numbers, and the school is currently raising and collecting funds to build a two-story building with an indoor gym, cafeteria, and kitchen, insha'Allah.
