Public schools are the heart of our communities — and they deserve to be protected, not drained.
#NYSUT has been clear: unchecked charter expansion pulls critical funding from our public schools, lacks transparency, and sidelines the voices of local taxpayers. So proud of our members!
@governor.ny.gov I am a teacher in Ny. You have a huge population of teachers getting ready to retire. With tier 6, you are not recruiting as many teachers as you will need to replace those of us leaving. Please take a look at what we each go through every day and push for reform. #nysut
Honored to speak at #NYSUT BIPOC Pathways to Leadership this weekend.
The future of our union is stronger, more inclusive, and more powerful because of you.

What an incredible morning celebrating 30 years of Making Strides Against Breast Cancer here in the Capital District!
For three decades, this community has shown what hope, love, and solidarity look like in action. #NYSUT members always show up big, raising more than $18 million over the years.
All across New York, #NYSUT officers are showing up for No Kings Day — standing together to protect our democracy. 👑✊
From the North Country to Long Island, Saratoga to Albany, we’re united in one message: No kings. No crowns. Just democracy. 💪🇺🇸
The Franklin-St. Lawrence #NYSUT United Retirees will host a glass-bottom boat tour to the 1847 Rock Island #Lighthouse on the #StLawrenceRiver, #NewYork, at 10:30am on Monday, Sept. 8. The event is open to all retired teachers and their spouses.
Thank you to our #NYSUT members who took part in last week’s regional conferences, from Tarrytown to Western New York!🌟
Watching educators come together during their summer break to collaborate, share best practices & strategically plan for the upcoming school year is what makes our union strong.
Teachers — too many back to school costs are coming out of your own pockets. That’s that we at #NYSUT are fighting hard for that educator tax credit because you shouldn't have to choose between supplies for your students and groceries for your family.
For those justifiably concerned about the bizarre approach taken by New York State to the Biology and Earth Science #Regents exams, your teachers' union is stepping up to help prevent future snafus. Included here is a link to the statement posted by #NYSUT President Melinda Person.

🚨 The Supreme Court just greenlit Trump’s plan to cut the Dept. of Ed —1,400 layoffs, threatening support for special ed, civil rights, & financial aid. #NYSUT @aft.org & @neatoday.bsky.social will keep fighting to protect public education.

When tests don’t match what’s taught, students and educators pay the price.
We’ve heard from many #NYSUT members that this year’s Bio & Earth Science Regents included off-topic material. We are pushing for better alignment—every student deserves a fair shot to succeed.

Grateful for every #NYSUT delegate who spent their week at @neatoday.bsky.social #NEARA2025 doing the hard work of our national union. This is how we fight for public education, our students, their families, and our educators. 💪
Even with so much at stake—from school funding to the federal budget—we’re not backing down.
At the @neatoday.bsky.social RA in Portland, #NYSUT delegates are united, energized, and ready to fight for our public schools.💪
📍At the @neatoday.bsky.social RA and fully in our #NYSUT era
Fighting for educators, students, and the future of public ed—because that’s what we do. 💙✊
#NYSUT is #UnionStrong at the @neatoday.bsky.social retiree meeting in Portland today! @mkusler.bsky.social

We did this, together. 💪🍎
This year’s NY budget is a win for kids & classrooms — universal school meals, funding for distraction-free learning, and real investments in Career & Tech Ed and public higher ed. Thank you to our #NYSUT members who never stopped fighting.

Huge thanks to our @nysutwny.bsky.social #NYSUT members for organizing one of the biggest Fix Tier 6 rallies yet! Together, we’re turning up the heat to fix what’s broken—because 30 years should be a career. 💪 @coachcant.bsky.social
#NYSUT fam — this year, we’ve done some serious SLAYING.
🍇🥑 Universal school meals – big slay

I was so proud and happy to be a part of history on April 5th in NYC! Keep up the good trouble! #handsoff #AFT #AFL-CIO #NYSUT #unionstrong

Still no announced Republican candidate to replace #Stefanik
but nut from Amsterdam is busy trolling state Senator Dan Stec.
Or is he trolling #NYSUT for obeying in advance to the MAGA working to destroy our public education system.
