April 1 is Paraprofessional Appreciation Day, and the UFT is proud to honor the thousands of paraprofessional members who are the backbone of our school system. Whether on the school bus or in the classroom, working with one student or partnering with a teacher, your expertise is invaluable to our communities every single day.

The best way the city can show some appreciation for our paraprofessionals is to pass our RESPECT check legislation and start to fix the harm caused by pattern bargaining. Yes, the fight for the RESPECT check bill is still on, and we won't stop until we get it done. Our paraprofessionals deserve this and so much more. Show them some love!

We need to address this injustice now. We are calling on all paraprofessionals to join the fight ahead to pass this ground-breaking legislation. Together, we can win! Here's how you can get involved:

[UFT @UFT]

Pattern bargaining, in which all city workers get the same percentage increases, has failed paraprofessionals. A 3% increase translates to a much higher dollar amount for higher-paid DOE employees than it does for us, so we fall farther and farther behind.

Sending warm wishes for a joyful Kwanzaa!

Special education support is vital to our students — so why are thousands of positions still vacant in NYC schools? 😡

This is wrong!

DOE, it’s time to #StaffOurSchools NOW!

At last we have a state-mandated maximum temperature for classrooms. Such a basic workplace safety protection yet we had to fight hard to get it enacted into law.
