At @uft_elementary our Early childhood Conference we had butcher block paper on each table at breakfast. We know about all our talented #artists and #creativeminds we have in our people. We also know we need to #doodle in EC ♥️ Look at all these creations #ecc2026 #ec18

Today was the Early Childhood Conference. On this cold and rainy Saturday - early childhood educators came out to learn, play, support, and have fun with another. Great day! More pics & videos to come ♥️… #staytuned #unionstrong #unionproud #ecc2026 #ec18

Reminder: as educators our pensions are protected. The only people who can actually make decisions about our pensions are the elected TRS trustees. For over 100 years the TRS has made choices on how to maintain our pension system with one guiding principle: keep our pensions strong. That commitment continues. Don't let anyone mislead you. Our pension is guaranteed by the New York State constitution.

Continuing to show love to paraprofessionals on Paraprofessional Appreciation Day and every day!
UFT Paraprofessional Chapter Chairperson Priscilla Castro is featured in this great story from the AFT highlighting the work paraprofessionals do each day supporting students and teachers alike. She even calls out our continuing fight for the RESPECT check.
Go Priscilla!

April 1 is Paraprofessional Appreciation Day, and the UFT is proud to honor the thousands of paraprofessional members who are the backbone of our school system. Whether on the school bus or in the classroom, working with one student or partnering with a teacher, your expertise is invaluable to our communities every single day.
The best way the city can show some appreciation for our paraprofessionals is to pass our RESPECT check legislation and start to fix the harm caused by pattern bargaining. Yes, the fight for the RESPECT check bill is still on, and we won't stop until we get it done. Our paraprofessionals deserve this and so much more. Show them some love!
