Welcome to AMLY School, a beacon of hope and inspiration nestled in the historic heart of Souq Juma. Our story begins with Dr. Massoud Wheda, an esteemed professor and civil engineer whose journey from the University of Wisconsin to Tripoli University shaped his vision for transformative education. Inspired by the American system of cultivating lifelong learners and effective leaders, Dr. Wheda sought to bring this ethos to his community.

Driven by a passion to restore hope and opportunity, he created a state-of-the-art 6,000-square-meter facility—AMLY School. Here, quality education takes precedence over profit, as Dr. Wheda and his dedicated team believe that true success lies in exceeding the expectations of families invested in their children’s future.
