We passed legislation to at long last reduce class sizes. This is a huge victory for NYC school kids that will provide students with a sound basic education. Combined w/ $1.6B in ADDITIONAL ANNUAL state funding for @NYCSchools, this is a FUNDED mandate!
For this and so many reasons I will be voting @UFTUnity! We get the work done!

“When people contact me asking for help, I refer them to Unity members. When I want things done, I ask Unity members to help me. And they do, always.”

Clearly the chancellor has been misinformed about the UFT’s position. We have long called for an instructionally sound remote option and have been speaking directly to the mayor about creating one, a program that will work for students.
I love when leaders model what they want to see in schools. Shout outs @cristinevaughan for making the time to stop by to check in on school leaders and drop off a treat! Sending the message that she sees, hears, and values her admins. Well done. #Leadership
Mayor deBlasio & the DOE, in their infinite wisdom, are denying accommodations for even the most severe medical cases. We call bullshit - They have the legal & moral obligation to do the right thing & protect our most vulnerable members. @NYCMayor@NYCSchools@DOEChancellor@UFT
Finally!!!! Great Letter @NYSAAA6 ! Thank you @colinschmitt !! Parents, Coaches, Student Athletes and Fans of High School Sports all appreciate your Legislation!! Our kids need Sports and it can be done safely @HealthNYGov !
My New Year wish is for @NYGovCuomo and @HealthNYGov look at the facts and give the approval for HS hockey to start.
1. There is a low amount of contact, <3 seconds, between hockey players during a game.
2. Hockey players are totally covered in protective equipment.
CT approved “high-risk” to start Jan 19. What are we missing here @NYGovCuomo and @HealthNYGov are ignoring the importance for kids to play. Please get this right ASAP. We are not spreaders. #LetsGo
