Be carefull when buying an appliance from @SamsungUS. I just spent thousands of dollars are appliances from them and received a defective Fridge less than a month ago but will not replace it. Shame on you!!!
Before now, final average salary for Tier 6 was based on the top five consecutive earning years. This improvement to Tier 6 marks another win in what we hope will be a series of changes that will add up to substantial reform to Tier 6. But we have a lot more work to do.
State lawmakers sided with us against the mayor’s reckless budget cuts and the city’s resistance to implementing the class size law. The new state budget protects school funding and sets strict parameters that will push forward the class size law.
We were able to achieve many working condition improvements in the tentative contract agreement, including this new provision on parental leave for two parents who are both UFT members. #UFTFairContractNow
Our tentative contract agreement includes a provision for those grieving the loss of a loved one, loosening up a strict leave period from a 9-day window to a 90-day window if the delay is connected to a funeral or a memorial service that is scheduled later. #UFTFairContractNow
Under the tentative contract agreement, UFT-represented elementary school employees will no longer need to perform dismissal duties beyond their instructional day. #UFTFairContractNow
Under the tentative contract agreement, elementary school teachers will finally have the same contractual rights in their program that high school and middle school teachers have both had for almost 50 years. #UFTFairContractNow
Hey @sen_gounardes, @NYSUT and public school advocates urge you to REJECT the expansion of charter schools. Stand with educators, parents, students and not billionaires advocating for charter expansion. Charter schools can’t fill their current seats - they don’t need more!

Fair contract now is the message and blue is our color. Members at IS 223 in Brooklyn stand in solidarity with the fight for a contract we deserve. #UFTFairContractNow

Our members helped our public schools through the worst of the pandemic. Now we’re fighting to help our students recover from its effects. Educators need a fair contract that will help them, and our schools, improve the lives of our city’s children. #UFTFairContractNow
Class size legislation overwhelmingly passes senate and assembly but @GovKathyHochul does not sign into law and instead enters into “negotiations” with nyc mayor behind closed doors. https://t.co/oFRWpoL3Ox
Enough lip service. Politics should not get in the way of what educators, parents and students all know #OurKidsNeed. It’s time for @GovKathyHochul to walk the walk and sign the historic class size legislation into law.
Last night @NYCMayor spoke passionately about how he believes our schools should be equipped to identify trauma.
Pro Tip - A strong first step would be to restore the education cuts and stop fighting tooth and nail against state class size legislation
Stakeholder input? @GovKathyHochul aside from the mayor everyone knows our kids in NYC need this. The legislation passed with supermajority support in senate and assembly. Explain to us how you aren't stifling democracy at this point.
