New York State United Teachers President Andy Pallotta issued the following statement yesterday, following Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s comments about reopening schools this fall:
“Educators know that being in person is the best way for students to learn and for teachers to teach. We support offering full-time in-person instruction five days a week and await formal guidance for the fall on how districts, working with educators and parents, should craft their plans to bring all students back to the classroom.”
