"I'm glad CRONM is here and there is now a group looking out for the taxpayers."
-----Michael Herman, N.M. Resident and NYC teacher.
CONCERNED RESIDENTS OF NORTH MERRICK, INC. OR "CRONM" is a neighborhood grass roots organization created to be a watchdog for the North Merrick taxpayer and our children.
Since our start in 2017, we have increased voter participation 35% at the last 3 school Board elections !
We continue to the Watchdog for the the North Merrick Community to ensure:
That our Board of Education remains a reflection of the North Merrick Taxpayer and our children. "To represent the many and not the few."
Ensure that our Board of Education allocates our taxes responsibly and for the benefit of our children and their education.
Continue to provide a platform where North Merrick Residents can receive information on what is happening at the Board of Education, receive information on meeting agendas, minutes, initiatives, and provide information on how current Board policies impact our North Merrick schools, children and how our tax dollars are being spent by the District.
Endorse Board of Education trustees who prioritize education and the needs of our children and residents above special interests and personal agendas.
Please visit our info tabs to see what happened at the last Board meeting and get up to date information on what is happening at our Board of Education and District.
Next Board Meeting will be live! July 11, 2023 at 9 am at Fayette.
Check out the BOE tag to get up to speed on past meetings and board videos.
Mission Statement
CRONM wants our Board of Education to serve only the North Merrick Residents interests.
North Merrick has almost 12,000 registered voters but fewer than 2,500 voted in the last school board election.
Low voter turnout means your voice is not heard on election day.
