Victoria Lee
Treasurer

Victoria Lee was elected by the UFT Executive Board on Dec. 4 to complete the remainder of Debra Penny’s term as UFT treasurer. Last February, Lee was elected to complete Penny’s term as one of the three teacher-member trustees on the Teachers’ Retirement System board.

Lee began her career in New York City public schools in 1997 as a teacher at PS 143 in Corona, Queens. Two years later, she moved to a neighboring school, PS 16, and was elected its chapter leader in 2009. The following year, she trained to become a pension consultant for the Queens UFT borough office, even as she continued teaching.

After becoming a UFT pension representative in 2016, the union soon had Lee running pension clinics and workshops throughout the city. Lee’s term as treasurer runs through 2025.
