Salim has taught Ancient History, in
the D.C. Public School System, and served as Acting Principal of Theodore
Roosevelt High School from 1987 through 1992. He also founded the Muslim
Community School in 1980, which is located in Potomac, Maryland. The school
offers Pre-K through grade twelve, and at its peak, student enrollment reached

Soner Tarim, Superintendant of Gulen “inspired” Harmony
Charter Schools in Texas, has boldly tried to file an application for a charter
school in Washington, DC. Here is the
application:
The proposed Gulen operated charter school in DC will be
called Harmony School of Excellence. Are
we to assume that Texas money will cross state lines into Washington DC? Gulenist supporter Sharif Salim M.Ed on
page 393 appears as a “Board member of this proposed school” (see below for more on Salim)
Page 11, lists “Bridgespan” as giving the “seed money” to open this school. Which you can bet is another newly created Turkish investment group much like the TruGlobe that purchased the defaulted property in Atlanta where Fulton Science Academy (lost their charter mandate and now is a private school) is located. Not a bad deal, The school and their Grace Institute, defaulted on a $19 million loan to Wells Fargo, then TruGlobe purchased the property back on the courthouse steps auction for a mere $3 million. Pocketing the $16 million
Perhaps the DC Unified school district should read up on Dr. Soner Tarim (Marine Biologist) and learn of his admitted ties to Gulen and how Gulen inspires him. Tarim was outed in the New York Times for anti-American activities of preferential treatment and favoritism of Turkish businesses and contracts. Their preferential hiring of h1-b Visa Teachers (Male from Turkic countries) over Americans has cost jobs and further economic woes for Texas Taxpayers.
The Gulen Movement is embedded with American politics, and in Washington DC their mother lobbying group is Rumi Forum and Faruk Taban with the Turkic American Council which sponsors dinners and business forums with Congress members with Turkic countries.

Sharif Salim or Saarif Salim, it appears while he was principal at yet another
school in DC, one of the teachers was charged with assault on a student. Salim shortly left the school on a “leave” it
is unclear if this is the same “SALIM” or if he left voluntarily.
The Gulenists have once again latched on to a minority and
no doubt sniffed out the federal and state money available for developing
schools in impoverished areas with high African American students.
Interview
with Sharif Salim as the manager of Boxer Seth Mitchell:
“Salim, a D.C. resident who was a school principal and now opens
charter schools, touts boxing as an avenue to prosperity, or at the least a
platform to build character and heart. He sees enough technique and ample
character and heart in Mitchell, enough of all of that to gain revenge on Banks.”
