Education Category: Kentucky Education

OVERVIEW
Nur Islamic School of Louisville (NISL) is a private Muslim-affiliated K-12 institution with campuses in Louisville: the main K-8 campus at 6500 Six Mile Lane, Louisville, KY 40218, and a high school campus at 8005 New La Grange Road, Louisville, KY 40222. The school’s mission emphasizes holistic education—balancing rigorous academics, Islamic values and morals, and whole-child development.

WHAT MAKES IT UNIQUE

  • NISL is fully accredited by Cognia (formerly AdvancED) and the Council of Islamic Schools in North America (CISNA), demonstrating its commitment to high standards in both faith-based and academic education.

  • The school strongly emphasizes student achievement in competitive academic arenas: for instance, their middle school Future Problem Solving team and Governor’s Cup teams have earned top placements at district and state levels.

  • According to Niche, the student-teacher ratio is approximately 8 : 1, which is significantly lower than the national average and reflects the school’s focus on individualized attention.

  • The school integrates Islamic studies, Arabic language, and character education alongside a full academic curriculum—serving families seeking both faith formation and strong academics.

  • Located in Louisville’s Klondike neighborhood (Six Mile Lane campus) and a separate high school campus, NISL offers continuity from early childhood through secondary school in one institution.
