The Middletown Teachers Association, NYSUT local 2831, is a body of 703 members in six buildings in Middletown, NY. Our buildings include Maple Hill Elementary School, Presidential Park Elementary School, William A. Carter Elementary School, Monhagen Middle School, Twin Towers Middle School, and Middletown High School.
Our Executive Board, which meets twice a month, is comprised of four officers-President, Vice President, Secretary, Treasurer, one Senior Building Representative(SBR) for each building and an Affiliate-at-Large Representative.
Throughout this century, the AFT has been a major force for preserving and strengthening America's democratic commitment to public education and public service. Desegregating public schools, passing the landmark Elementary and Secondary Education Act, establishing collective bargaining for teachers and other public employees, and addressing the needs of disadvantaged children are just a few of the causes the AFT has championed.
Learn the history of the AFT, including the union's founding in Chicago in 1916, its affiliation with the AFL-CIO, its battles for workers and human rights and its continued work to uphold the proud traditions on which the union was created.
The American Federation of Teachers is a union of professionals that champions fairness; democracy; economic opportunity; and high-quality public education, healthcare and public services for our students, their families and our communities. We are committed to advancing these principles through community engagement, organizing, collective bargaining and political activism, and especially through the work our members do.
