Working alongside Andy for so many years has given me the opportunity to learn from one of the best. Thank you, Andy Pallotta, for your leadership, insight, and friendship over the years. NYSUT is stronger than ever thanks to your hard work. Your legacy will live on.

One of the most special parts of the #NYSUTRA is getting to meet with and discuss the issues that matter most to educators and members. The conversations, interactions and bonding with our union family strengthens our resolve and helps us move forward together.

Proud to serve as the ED 7/8 At Large Director with Melinda Person 🍎✌🌈 Jaime Ciffone Ron Gross Philippe Abraham leading the way. Congrats to you all. STAUnionHall 🍎 NYSUT

Teacher Appreciation Night! Thank you, Hudson Valley Renegades! NYSUT

Today is #TeacherAppreciationDay! And while we work to appreciate educators each and every day, it’s still nice to hear: teachers, we ♥️ you! And, at this year’s #NYSUTRA, plenty of love was shared for New York’s educators and the work they do each and every day.

A great day for a 5k with the Carmel Teachers Association - they raised over $15,000 for scholarships in their community… we>me NYSUT
