@MelindaJPerson@nysut And how many are from small and rural locals? Can't afford to go especially when your voice is not heard with one vote. Need a system like US government where there is a second body that has equal vote otherwise there's no real point to come.
Nearly three-fourths of high school teachers and a third of middle school teachers say that students being distracted by cellphones is a major problem. And the impact on kids’ health goes beyond the classroom. @NYSUT is stepping up to address this issue and finding solutions to the growing problem of cell phones and technology in the classroom.

I’ve visited dozens of NY schools in the last 6 weeks since @NYSUT learned about the state’s proposed school aid cuts. These cuts will decimate opportunities for kids – one superintendent I met called them “apocalyptic.’ The excuses given to small, rural schools – like Franklin CSD featured @NYTimes – just don’t add up. The state needs to honor their promise to schools and fully fund Foundation Aid. #NoCutstoSchools #PublicSchoolsUniteUs @NYSUT

@MelindaJPerson Does NYSUT support changing the foundation and formula so aid is more equitable across the state? Where you live in NY shouldn't determine the quality of education you receive.
Thank you @NYSUTStreasurer Philippe Abraham for visiting today and spending time with our students and staff. We appreciate you taking the time to learn about and advocate for our District.
As schools face expiring federal funding, state cuts in education funding would have devastating impacts on students, educators, and communities. Now is not the time to pull the carpet out from under our kids - NY needs to restore Foundation Aid funding in the budget to support students and their schools. @NYSUT

Lawmakers in Albany are concerned about proposed cuts to the Foundation Aid for public schools. No one benefits from arbitrary cuts. Let’s sit down and find a better way to meet the needs of our schools and their students. @NYSUT

Stand up for our children's education! Act now to prevent severe cuts, ensure quality schooling, and safeguard the future of New York's students – their success depends on your urgent support! https://t.co/Q4hVtRGFP7
Call them what you want; these are cuts! It took less than a year after the legacy victory of fully funding Foundation Aid for that promise to be broken. To say we are profoundly disappointed is an understatement. Read our full statement @NYSUT

@SenatorHelming
Stop the governor’s cuts to needy districts. The 2024-25 NYS Executive Budget would slash more than $400 million in promised public school aid, with harsh effects on needy districts and small, rural communities where school budgets lean heavily on Foundation Aid.
@GovKathyHochul
What happened to your promise ?
