Charter Schools Week
April 30, 2007 10:24 AM
The AFT Charter Schools Week statement, released today, includes this quote from AFT President Edward J. McElroy:
"Teachers in all public schools, whether traditional or charter, deserve the opportunity to bargain collectively for fair salaries, benefits and a voice in making their schools excellent. Students benefit when teachers and their unions are partners with their school districts."
The statement also announces the launch of the Alliance of Charter Teachers and Staff, or ACTS, to represent the interests of AFT-represented charter school educators nationwide.
