A couple of notes: please get skin checks often, please don’t think it can’t happen to you and, above all, please wear sunscreen.

I put in ~ 7 hours every Sunday to plan curriculum. I use every prep for grading. I get to school two hours early every day to do all the little daily tasks. I don’t understand how I’m putting in this much work and feeling like my head is barely above water. This is year 10.

Looking forward to this weekends leadership conference with our NYSUT SRPs in Saratoga. It is our first in person statewide meeting since before the pandemic. Thanks to all that have helped make this a reality. NYSUT Andy Pallotta

Great start to our SRP conference here in Saratoga. Big thanks to Christel Williams-Hayes for inspiring all of us to DEMAND FOR MORE.

That’s a wrap! NYSUT SRP’s rocked it all weekend and ended our conference with a $2,162 check for our NYSUT Relief Fund and a rousing rendition of SOLIDARITY FOREVER. Andy Pallotta NYSUT
