Very informative meeting.

Started off with update on the website. Do you know that North Merrick School District and BOE have their own app? It's free and can be downloaded from google play and apple. Just search "North Merrick Schools" and the app will appear. It will allow you access to website. You can download the calendar and sync with yours for alerts and meeting times. The app is officially live so check it out.
