Averroes High School is a private faith-based, college preparatory high school, dedicated to helping students to achieve personal and academic success through proven best practices of teaching and learning. We trust holistic education that nurtures the academics, social and spiritual well-being.
Averroes High School was founded in 2010 by a a group of educators eager to provide a strong option for the Muslim youth in the Bay Area. These Muslim educators joined together their classical teaching knowledge with their modern teaching skills
We believe that spiritual maturation translates into both academic and social success. Our goal is to help young adults comfortably transition into adulthood with a clear sense of self through knowledge, experience, direction, respect, and support. The school is named in honor of Ibn Rushd, the famed philosopher known to the West as Averroes (1126-1198). Referred to as “The Great Commentator” by St. Thomas Aquinas for his authoritative study of Aristotle, Averroes was a trained master in areas of logic, law, medicine, astronomy, geography, music theory, mathematics, and more, and his work is cited in some of the West’s most definitive scholarship.along with a constant lens or morality and hope in supporting students for success. It is our goal to support our students with a strong sense of identity and clarity of vision.
