Negotiated away rights and time in return for cash. Bit by bit we are getting a grip on how much damage was done. [...] [...] The 2005 NYC teachers contract was a disaster.

We are not getting more pay, we are working more. To boot, open market only benefits new teachers. Since age is a privilege we should all look forward to, new teachers will become old, one day. The loss of seniority in clustering for positions was a tremendous mistake. In my school, very good teachers are having their careers and self esteem ruined by letters in their files. They can't leave because the principal blacklists them to other principals. It is very sad. The 2005 contract is “unsmart.” We are not getting more pay, we are working more.

It has been improving, but slowly. When you find bad links, please e-mail them and let them know. The correct tables are at the UFT site. Click "Member Services." The page is divided into 4 horizontal strips of links. On the left hand side of the third strip is "money matters." The 3rd link is salary schedules. When you tell them about the bad links, let them know what you clicked to get there. That will help them either update that link, or delete it.
