The Island Now

It is with great pride and pleasure that we announce our support for our cousin, Patricia Cregan Navarra, for trustee for the Mineola Board of Education.  

We are both Mineola graduates and have lived in the Mineola School District for over 40 years.  We have seen our district go through many changes – some good and some bad. One thing we do know, Patricia Navarra as trustee on the Mineola Board of Education would be a positive change for our school district!

Patricia will be a tremendous asset to our Board and to our school district. She will bring her knowledge as well as her experiences from the numerous activities she has volunteered for throughout her years in our district such as PTA, Music Parents, District Council, P.E.A.C.E.,and all of the various committees she has been involved with.  

She is a college professor at Hofstra University, married to a very supportive husband, and has raised to beautiful well-rounded daughters.  She has so much to offer to our school district.

Patricia will work hard for the best interests of all of our student from the youngest to the oldest.  She will also have the best interests  for the taxpayers of our community.  Patricia has 10 households of relatives ranging from 10-80 years old living in our district, many of which are Mineola graduates also.

Patricia is smart, fair, and honest. More important, she is very approachable and easy to talk to.  She feels parents have a “Right to Know” and has our children’s best interests at heart.  If you want what is best for the students, parents, staff, and the taxpayers of the Mineola School District, then vote for Patricia Navarra for trustee of the Mineola Board of Education.
