Utica educator: Teacher collective bargaining matters for our children

As the 2018-19 school year draws to a close, teachers and school administrators have begun the process of making sure the 2019-20 school year and beyond is focused on the goal of our children getting the best school experience possible through bargaining negotiations. These negotiations are commonly narrowly and inaccurately painted as budget discussions, and yes much of this is about money, but for our educators the prime focus is making sure we continue to have a valued voice in how our schools operate and how they perform.
