School Notes
Good Tree Academy is the first fully accredited PreK-12 Islamic
school located in Collin County (North of Dallas county). Good Tree
was established in 2009 in Richardson, Texas at a rented office
building with 19 students through the inspiration of our beloved
Imam Yusuf Ziya Kavakci of the Dallas Central Mosque in Richardson
to cultivate American Muslim leaders and scholars grounded in
academics as well as faith and character. An internationally
renowned scholar and a dynamic thought leader in the greater Dallas
faith space, Imam Yusuf had a vision to offer an accredited,
high-quality core studies curriculum balanced with a rigorous
Quran-centered religious studies where students would be proud of
both their American and Muslim identity. The founding team of
educators planned highly individualized, multi-age, hands-on,
project-based classrooms. School days were divided nearly in half
between core and religious studies. The number of students and
quality of education consistently grew in the Richardson campus
until the school was ready to move to a bigger facility. In 2013,
Good Tree merged with Furqaan Academy in Collin County, north of
Dallas, and moved into a much larger 15000 sq ft facility in Allen,
Texas. The continued growth and success of Good Tree led to the
acquisition of the current 24,000 square feet school building in
Plano, Texas at the heart of Collin County from the 2017-2018
school year. Our current campus houses our Montessori style
Preschool, and a traditional Elementary, Middle, and High school.
The school also houses a large gymnasium for physical education, a
library, an outdoor playground, a dedicated prayer room, and
storage facilities.
