Principal's Welcome
As the principal of Orange Crescent School, I am extremely proud of our students and their accomplishments; from academics to Quranic studies and physical education, OCS students continue to excel. OCS’ mission of academic and moral excellence has been the cornerstone to all its programs.
OCS students participate in several activities throughout the school year that nurtures their spiritual, intellectual, physical, and emotional well-being. We are privileged to offer our students a range of events such as the Hajj Simulation, Seerah Commemoration, Spelling Bee, Science Fair, Academic Pentathlon, Sports Day, community service projects, field trips and more. OCS has won several awards including the status of Orange County’s most accomplished school at the 2015 60th annual Orange County Science & Engineering Fair (OCSEF) by winning the coveted Outstanding School Award for the Junior Division for the second time! Six of our student projects placed at the County Level and Ali Zia was able to take First Place in the California State Science Fair! OCS Middle school also participated in the Orange County Academic Pentathlon, which tests students in all academic subjects from public and private OC schools and the OCS teams excelled in all categories. The 8th grade OCS Brilliant Stars won 1st Place in Division 3! Our students took home over 150 medals in total! Our staff is committed to providing a quality education to all OCS students. We pride ourselves in offering a strong academic and religious program to all students regardless of their socio-economic background. A private Islamic school should not just be for the financially elite, but for all students who believe in our mission of excellence. OCS has been able to provide an affordable program that is WASC accredited because of the strong commitment by the community. The continuous improvement that we are experiencing is a direct outcome of the collective effort of all of us working together for the betterment of OCS. We provide a caring and safe environment for our students to be themselves and reach their full potential. OCS has a rich history of 41 years of excellence and with your continued support and commitment, we can further grow OCS to service more students and continue to raise the bar.
