Meet the President: District 15

A full house of animated UFT members eager to be brought up-to-date on a range of issues greeted UFT President Michael Mulgrew at a District 15 Meet the President gathering on April 15 at Pacificana Restaurant in Sunset Park, Brooklyn. He spoke of the problems stemming from the fact that teachers do not have curriculum guides aligned with the Common Core standards that tests this month will be based on and the plummeting scores expected as a result. He also discussed the upcoming mayoral election, making no bones about his eagerness for Bloomberg’s term to end and the chance to restore support for schools and respect for teachers.

UFT President Michael Mulgrew assures District 15 educators that better days lie ahead.
