North Merrick School District
The approach of the community at the North Merrick School District resolves to nurture, guide, challenge and self-motivate children to maximize their potential to become valuable citizens to society as individuals who respect themselves and others with a sense of flexibility and open-mindedness.
The district focuses all its efforts to develop academic programs conversant with technology, but also giving to students the opportunity of learning to function independently or cooperatively in order to access, analyze and process a variety of data to solve everyday problems.
In addition, art programs are present at North Merrick School District, named by the American Music Conference as one of the best 100 Communities for Music Education in America for 2005, and the only cited among the five Long Island school districts cited for that year for its excellent music program.
The Superintendent said that only a solid partnership between the schools and homes permits the students to flourish in a collaborative work involving them with parents, teachers, staff and administrators. |
