It was a pleasure to join members of the New York State United Teachers at today's Solidarity Day Parade. The teachers I talked to were excited about getting students in their classrooms and starting the 2017-18 school year. There are a number of positive initiatives planned in our local schools this year. I saw teachers from schools in St. Lawrence, Jefferson and Franklin county schools marching in this year's parade. NYSUT does a great job fighting for North Country schools and students.
